Just wondering the status of CentOS 7 ppc64, as 7.6.1810 was released on
December 3rd 2018 for all arches *but* ppc64, and no news since.

In the CentOS Infra, I had to maintain ppc64 hosts for both cbs/koji and
other nodes, but as recently, someone decided to archive 7.5.1804 to
vault, and also that there is no ppc64 anymore on mirrors, one having to
deal with ppc64 is now in a position where :
- it's impossible to install new ppc64 host
- it's impossible to just "yum install" anything either

Can we get an official statement from the ppc64 maintainer about this ?
Or should we consider that arch dead and unmaintained, and if so, I can
remove ppc64 from the centos infra too ... (or maybe we should find a
new maintainer, etc ..)

Anyway, any official statement would be good at this stage.

Cheers,
