7 - I'm offering to stable any interested arch for 7.1. PPC, SPARC and
8 MIPS have already taken me up on this. I will be starting this very soon
9 (within 2 hours at most), so respond ASAP if you would like to save
10 yourself a lot of work.

12 - I highly recommend you delete or move your distfiles before starting,
13 to ensure you don't break the digests. Early on in modular X, the
14 digests for many tarballs were changed.

16 - If you stable your own arch, please also keyword xev and luit in
17 addition to the various deps of virtual/x11, xorg-x11 and xorg-server.

19 Thanks,
20 Donnie
