Comment (by adamwill):

 I'm trying to do _something_ constructive here. I'm focused more on 'let's
 get something going on ARM', I am not thinking 'boy, PPC / s390 suck,
 let's insult them'. I'm sorry if it looks that way, but I'd just like to
 follow through on the work already proposed with a bunch of ARM folks. We
 are not making the situation wrt any other arch any worse than it
 currently is.

 Perspective is always a tricky thing, but ARM is a clearly growing arch
 with a huge amount of impetus behind it and there seems to be a broad
 consensus it will become a primary arch soon. This seems to me clearly not
 to be the case for PPC or s390, neither of which seem likely to grow
 explosively and more or less take over the end user device market any time
 soon.
