In my opinion there is too limited test data to conclude whether Lubuntu 
15.04 i386 is working as too few tests have been done.
My experience up to version 20150413 (which I will try today) is as 
follows. In the recent days I have tested a number of 32bit daily's in 
two single core machines and one dual core machine but none of these 
dvds could be booted to either live session or to manual disk 
partitioning, with bug #1432843. The dvds were burned with either 
Windows ISO Workshop or Linux XBurner, but this made no difference. All 
dvds are starting up but are hanging at some point. Crash dump is about 
Xorg. The 3 PC's I do the testing on all have nvidia cards.
The amd64 vivid could be installed several times without problems on the 
dual core machine.
Moreover I have crashed I think three alpha i386 installations when 
trying to upgrade to beta.
Only the alternate i386 could be installed in the recent days.
Meanwhile I have also installed on two machines Debian Jessie daily 
which are OK (but not so user friendly as Lubuntu).
