Hi List,

I wanted to reach out to you to let you know that we have established an x86 SIG in an effort to help address x86-related issues in Fedora. To help keep track of such issues, we have two x86-related tracker bugs:
* One for General x86-related issues: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1489998
* One for x86 ExcludeArch-related issues: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=179258

Please feel free to also reach out to us via the x86 mailing list([email protected]) or via the #fedora-x86 IRC channel.

Also, I wanted to let you know that we have decided to drop PAE support. I believe the kernel team has already disabled it for F27. They pointed out that this may affect Anaconda as well. And that the Lorax templates may need to be updated?

Thanks!

jeff
