Hi, Ralf, one of the goals of the change process (mailing list announcements and discussion we have right here) is to identify various impacts of the change and also to find better wording for it (including the title). So you shouldn't feel cheated, just contribute your thoughts and suggest the corrections.

I think that "No More i686 Kernels or bootable images" describes the change better. I searched through docs [1], [2], [3] and didn't find the definition for the secondary architecture which would fit the current case, thus "Drop as secondary architecture" would be confusing here. We do keep the i686 user-space packages, which means that we don't drop the architecture completely. And I think it makes sense to highlight it, especially with the recent news on the topic from Ubuntu world.
