First of all, I agree with pretty much all sentiments shown here. I guess
we all have valid points to make here, and although the ARM point keeps
itching me, it is not enough for me to create much time for it, which IMHO
confirms that it should not hold up work on the the main Haiku archs (i.e.
x86/x86_64).

With the current flow of things, it would actually not be much more
detrimental to the port to be moved to a github fork, as there are simply
not enough people caring about it to make it progress (sorry, keeping it
compiling does not cut it, see Ingo's remark about the PPC port).

Hehe, I was just about to actually reserve the timeslot for the next BG /
coding sprint for more ARM work ;)  But I would be more then happy to do
that in a github fork though...
