I would like to revisit this on the mailing list, to see what steps need to be addressed by the ARM team for a smooth migration to be possible.

Yeah well the content and the discussion in that ticket does not make 
much sense to me.

Incorporating arm or any other cpu for that matter in our process should 
not be a problem.

If it is, then it is something that we need to fix since our process 
should work regardless of the cpu in question.
( we dont care if it's primary or secondary either  )

The problem you are faced with is basically this reporters that own,can 
afford to buy or otherwise have access to hardware with arm cpu.
( same thing applies to sparc,ppc etc ) since our test coverage entirely 
depends upon that.

If there is any arm specific testing ( which I highly doubt since we 
dont have any i386 or x86_64 bit once ) that we need to perform we would 
just work those out with you guys and document them.
