6 Afaik we have 3 types of arches:
7
8 - experimental
9 They are not CCed on stablization bugs and don't do stablizations at
10 all.
11
12 ~mips, ~sparc-fbsd and ~x86-fbsd
13
14 - unsupported
15 They are CCed on stablizations bugs, but they are not supported by the
16 Gentoo Linux Security Project. It may take quite long until they
17 actually do the stablization. But I'm also wondering why some of their
18 profiles are marked as "dev".
19
20 arm, ia64, m68k, sh, s390
21
22 - supported
23 Most popular arches, supported by the Gentoo Linux Security Project,
24 they usually do your stablizations in time unless it requires some
25 exotic hardware(the devs/ats don't have) to test.
26
27 alpha, amd64, hppa, sparc, ppc, ppc64, x86
