If they are made, is QA going to commit to testing them as they have
in the past even if none of the issues found are going to block the
release? If so, then we have a discussion to have. If not, then I
really don't see the point in shipping untested media.
Well, we'd treat them just as any other non-release-blocking-but-still-
kinda-significant media, I guess - like the Xfce images, for e.g.
There'd be no need to drop the tests from the matrices, but they'd be
done on a best-effort basis. We could still have openQA do the 32-bit
testing it currently does (right now we only really test install of
live media, but I may get around to adding a few of the 'desktop' tests
to openQA before this cycle gets too busy).
