metad was meant to be the next gNewSense release (with support for
i686,
amd64 and mipsel), but that didn't work out.
I suppose the main reason was not enough people. Could that change if
there were people to support i686 and amd64? Is the discussion about
this decision available in the mailing list archives?
No it was because in the meantime Debian released another stable
version (Debian 6 "Squeeze").
gNewSense 3.0 will be based on that and will support i386, amd64 and
mipsel.
Support for other archs is possible if enough people will commit to
maintain them.
