  Hi Chris,

        Hi,

        As AIX Support is dropped from 3.27 onwards few question
        came up...

        1) will all support for AIX get purged from masterfiles or
           will everything already available stay in place?

  No, we aren't removing things to intentionally prevent things from
  working. It's just that we are no longer producing regular builds
  ourselves on AIX from 3.27 onwards.

        1) we are building cfengine community aix binaries from
           source, ist this still feasible?

        wbr

  Yes, absolutely. However, you may want to keep a closer eye on master
  and make sure that you are building and testing regularly in case we
  accidentally break something.
