Hi,
on OBS a lot of projects are building for Leap 42.2 in both i586 and X86_64, does this mean Leap 42.2 will be available in 32bit?
Cheers

No, this is not planned.

May i586 go to :Ports if sufficient community maintainers will be found? I mean, there are (yet) much more i586 hardware than armv7/armv8...

It has been said before that :Ports was a i586 option. The trouble is maintainers.
I suspect Arm has a lot of newness associated with it, so volunteers see it as an interesting thing.
i586 seems to be a relic of the past, so getting volunteers is hard. I don't have any i586 systems left, so I won't be volunteering.
Mind you, I do have a oS 13.1 32-bit appliance from SuseStudio that carry with me when I go to clients. That way I can boot their old equipment if needed.
But I avoid it. For my tasks it runs about 2x slower than 64-bit which I have a Leap 42.1 64-bit appliance for.

I have 32 bit hardware, which I was forced to replace with new 64 bit hardware. But I don't have the skills needed to help maintain anything in OBS.

No, but you can install .i586 rpms on it - pulling -32bit libraries.
