I'm not suggesting that you don't report bugs, or that you don't get 
support from here: making Touch better is important, and testing OTAs 
and reporting bugs is a huge part of that.

But I am saying that Ubuntu is changing, and that part of that change is 
to a 64-bit kernel: and that means that most of the devices currently 
running Touch, won't be able to run Personal. So it's something of an 
existential question for Ubuntu phone that we get some 64-bit devices.
