I just thought if all the people dev. for alpha started dev. for i686 and amd64 then the project would be stronger for it. The alpha guys are valuable no question and again it was not my intent to piss on them. I just don't have an alpha (I wish I did, but I don't) and so I am only thinking about I686 or amd64.Received on Wed Dec 10 2003 - 16:36:35 UTC
