Maybe the phrase doesn't translate - "voting with your feet" means that when something doesn't meet your needs, you go somewhere else to get something that does.
What Per is saying is that if people who want x86 support from openSUSE don't get it, they'll find a distro that does.
Which, if the stats Richard has are accurate, means we might lose, what, a dozen users? ;) (Exaggeration for effect)
A lot of the stuff we include (I prefer "include" over "support") might possibly have even less users. iSCSI anyone? SNMP? Without 42.1/Leap for 32bit, for my professional needs, I would remain with 13.2 for a while, then eventually switch to <somethingelse-32bit> for xen guests. I have a strong sentimental attachment to open/SUSE, but when it has to go, it has to go. It would be nice to run 32bit apps on a 64bit host though. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (29.4°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
