+    - Drop sparc32 flavour for now. sparc32 kernel is currently in the
+      category "too buggy for us to support". In spite of numerous efforts
+      I still see occasional random filesystem corruptions in my tests.
+      That does NOT mean that we are dropping sparc32 support, we will
+      work with upstream trying to solve these problems for the next
+      kernel release. Those interested in helping/testing are encouraged
+      to subscribe to debian-sparc mailing list.
