Supported architectures for minimals (any ppc users out there?)
Hi, I would suggest dropping support for linux-ppc for the ConTeXt distribution unless somebody objects. I'm surprised about the number of ppc users on Mac (and would be curious to get more off-list feedback from those still using it). TeX Live planned to drop support this year, but it seems that it's staying for now. We are currently cross-compiling the binaries, but at the moment both luajittex and metapost compilations seem to be broken. We also don't seem to have any kfreebsd or sparc-solaris users, but as long as their builders enjoy supplying the binaries, that's fine by me ;) On the other hand I need to sit down one day and fix support for cygwin. I'm sorry that this didn't happen yet. Mojca

Hi Mojca, AFAIK, I'm one of the two people who used linux-ppc, but that machine is no longer used as a desktop, so that's completely fine by me. And should I aver need the binaries, I know how to compile them...
Hi, Thomas A. S. was (again) wondering if there were (still) any users of linux-ppc binaries out there. We'll probably remove them otherwise (not sure why we didn't do that yet, but well ...) Mojca On 16 April 2014 at 13:55, Mojca Miklavec wrote:

Hi, I removed the binaries for linux-ppc. If anyone needs them, we could consider adding them back, (but at this point it made absolutely no sense to keep compiling the binaries without being aware of any users). Mojca On 17 January 2016 at 23:09, Mojca Miklavec wrote:
