+&gt;<i> I was watching now and I realized that both mageia and Mandriva have ports
+</I>&gt;<i> for both i586 and x64 architetures.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> When Mageia is released, she will compete directly with Mandriva, even
+</I>&gt;<i> though this is not your intention, Many Mandriva users will not want to
+</I>&gt;<i> migrate to Mageia and here is the clever.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Nowadays, they are increasingly common netbooks and tablets with ARM
+</I>&gt;<i> processors. In addition, there are still people with PowerPC Macs or
+</I>&gt;<i> PlayStations, which also use this processor.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> If we port Mageia for these architectures, we can grab a larger share of
+</I>&gt;<i> users, including fans of Mandriva, which could run a distro similar to
+</I>&gt;<i> that love on machines that do not support it.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Of course, this is not a trivial task and maybe cannot be done right now
+</I>&gt;<i> but think in the short term, this should be viable and will help spread
+</I>&gt;<i> the distro. It should not be difficult to find someone who has a computer
+</I>&gt;<i> with these features and want to build the distro. Of course, Mageia
+</I>&gt;<i> Foundation is busy with Alpha1 and a port would require more tests. Maybe
+</I>&gt;<i> for next year? I ask what are the difficulties in doing this?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Of course we don't need have a large range of architetures such like Debian
+</I>&gt;<i> or NetBSD, but these - ARM and PowerPC - are essentials.
+</I>
+iinm rtp (forgot real name, sorry) plans on doing ARM.
