after the 6.5 build breakage on ppc64be (which is not hard to fix, but...), the SUSE kernel team was discussing if we can disable ppc64 _big-endian_ completely. This would save a lot of "power" as we don't think anyone can run/runs Tumbleweed on these processors/machines.

Any opinions? If not, we will disable kernel builds around the mid of Sep. Disabling of the rest will likely follow.

Fine with me. The port is still maintained in Gentoo, Adélie Linux and Debian, so I think owners of the hardware can easily switch to alternative distributions. Adrian
