Hi Julien,

with such short time scale left, I've had a chat with Walter (PPC guy and
release manager). We're minded to drop PPC from 14.10 and concentrate our
limited resources on the 14.04 LTS.

I'm pretty sure you will be in agreement, the question is will LXQt support
the PPC machines, or do we have to wave goodbye to them come EoL of 14.04?

Kindest regards,

Phill.
