Thanks Fabian,
But my question was mainly about when should I expect a reliable arm/arm64 repos that I can trust to use as a production server and expect security updates to come in a timely manner as the normal CentOS x86/x86_64? Is ARM support something CentOS is targeting or just as a side project when time is available?
BTW, the URL http://armv7.dev.centos.org/repodir/epel-pass-1/ is down at the moment of writing this email.

Seeing the centos support for the Raspberry Pi is what got me to go a head and by the new Pi3. However, is there an estimated date when it will be ready to be used for servers with all the packages?
I am currently running ownCloud (Nginx + php + MariaDB) on RPi2 with Fedora 23 it runs smooth with no issues at all but I don't want the bleeding edge tools and the frequent updates and would love to go back to CentOS.
Love the work you guys do.
Hi,
Well, in your specific example, some pkgs aren't coming from [base] : nginx isn't provided by CentOS, but through EPEL for "normal" arch like x86_64.
As there is *no* armhfp support at the EPEL level, we tested a massive rebuild and I see that nginx built successfully : http://armv7.dev.centos.org/repodir/epel-pass-1/nginx/1.6.3-8.el7/armv7hl/ (please note that those pkgs aren't signed at all, but still available publicly for your convenience : http://armv7.dev.centos.org/repodir/epel-pass-1/ )
php and mariadb are already available in [base]/[updates]
What else are you searching for ?
