Is there some vendor-neutral wiki or other place that would be easy to update that could be used to define tuples? I think the table is currently in that wiki page since that was just the easiest place to put it. As soon as there is some place more authoritative the table could be replaced with a link. If some other OS implements multiarch with different tuples, that's no big deal. An OS implementing multiarch using the same tuples with incompatible meaning would be more unpleasant. Jonathan
