Hi guys,

So to summarize this thread and in a attemp to make some progess, this is what I see as the conclusions and the next step(s) :

• The devs have no problems with the basic idea of providing i586

support for CentOS 5.

• The devs currently do not have the time/resources/... to do pursue

this themselves.

• So we are looking for (a) volunteer(s) that are willing to make this

happen, but with guidance and support from a developer.

• Daniel already did work on this, so we do not have to start from

scratch. Daniel is willing to provides to the people willing to work in this (Daniel, this is how I understood it ?).

• The result of all the work will no be put in the base OS but

probably be put inside the context of CentOSPlus and will have a alternative install method (details to be discussed).

So, as far is I see it what we need now is a (couple of) volunteer(s) that are willing to invest some time in this and then we can go ahead with it. So, any takers ?

Regards, Tim
