Re: armel/armhf arch qualification for buster: call for DSA, Security, toolchain concernsj
Dear armel/armhf shakeholders, I talked to a few people about keeping armel in buster, during 1st and 2nd day in debcamp. Seems the blocker is just the buildd server hardware, and memory size it has.

So it'll be super great if you (or your boss) can kindly sponsor some armel/armhf hardwares that support to install 4GB memory. Thanks!

Altough I enabled -fPIE/-pie for most of my maintaining packages, I'm not sure / I don't have enough knowledge whether it's able to be applied to all packages. Since all other ARM porters seem agree on this, I believe it definitely deserves a try to enable this hardening on stretch.
