6 When you do timeout a bug and assign it to arches, it would be great if
7 you could assign it to *all* previously stable arches, not just x86 and
8 amd64.

10 I've reopened a few timed out bugs to add missing arches so arch teams
11 can either drop keywords or stabilize. That way the tree as a whole can
12 slowly improve rather then just letting x86/amd64 rocket ahead while
13 having to keep all the old and often deprecated packages around anyway
14 for all the other stable arches.
