There was a problem with the creation of the list which took a bit of
time to track down. The problem is now fixed and the list is open.

I was successful by going here: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/

and searching for 'x86'.

Hyperkitty dies horribly whenever I try to follow the link to the
mailing list or when I search for it from the main page. Any ideas?

The mailing list x...@lists.fedoraproject.org has been created. Please
subscribe to the list if you are interested in helping support x86_32
in F27. If you are very interested please add yourself to the members
list on the wiki page.

I'm interested in x86 still being supported, but have less than zero time
to help at the moment. A mailing list would help me to stay in the loop so
that I can pitch in when I can.

Thanks to the people who started helping to update that page. I
realize it is pretty bare bones and cut and paste so will look forward
to people either adding info or emailing me to put more info into it.

Hi,

which mirrors the various other Architecture pages I looked at. A
Special Interest Group etc would be founded on this. I don't know if a
'mailing' list is wanted etc.

The steps I see are:
1. Whatever chartering work is needed to get a SIG together.
2. A formal statement as requested by some users about the architecture
3. A survey of problems on the architecture.
4. A hardware selection the SIG are going to focus on.
5. What product the SIG is planning to deliver.

I expect there are other things, but I just want to get those out of
the way as should haves.


Cool, thank you for starting this. I'm afraid I will only have
limited time to help,  but I do want to help. What would be ideal
for me is a mailinglist which get Cc-ed on any i686 bugs on which
I can lurk and occasionally jump in to help.

Just to consider for various "small virtual machines" an x32 arch may be
a better match than the i686 being deprecated:

Starting an x86_32 SIG

2017-07-12 Thread Stephen John Smoogen
This is a notice to see if people are really interested in having a
SIG on 32 bit Intel. I haven't created a SIG so I am researching what
is needed but I started with this page

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/x86

which mirrors the various other Architecture pages I looked at. A
Special Interest Group etc would be founded on this. I don't know if a
'mailing' list is wanted etc.

The steps I see are:
1. Whatever chartering work is needed to get a SIG together.
2. A formal statement as requested by some users about the architecture
3. A survey of problems on the architecture.
4. A hardware selection the SIG are going to focus on.
5. What product the SIG is planning to deliver.

I expect there are other things, but I just want to get those out of
the way as should haves.
