All very nice and all, that you are porting this, however, why not
contribute to F17 and beyond, because then we might/will end up with a
proper RHEL/CentOS ARM version sooner. There has been a buzz in the past
about low power usage, performance multi-core arm chips, which can be
stacked in racks.

Still an interesting effort though.

Regards,

Tristan
