Actually, I meant "official" as in "officially supported arch" in this
case.

As for infra posting everything, yeah... that's the plan (and also how
it's been historically)...

Generally, Jeff would bit flip/commit www.g.o news at the same time,
along with GWN posting at around the same time... this gave us a single
consistent release information... This *will* be how we do it for
2006.0, so don't worry there.
