Except for actually
building the 32-bit versions, is there real/much work involved for EPP
(Markus)? If not, the discussion is worthless in my opinion and EPP should
just ship/support what the platform decides to support. And as Mike mentioned.
The Eclipse TLP PMC decides which platforms are supported and not any of
the councils.

The target environments has a cross-project
effect and may become a cross-project effort/win. Ultimately, the question
is whether Simultaneous Release, EPP packages, installer and so on should
keep targeting 32-bits and whether they can safely drop it from now on
as part of a collective decision. I believe if one of the councils emits
a recommendation, it will be easier for projects to take a decision and
action here. Without a clear recommendation, it's likely to be a "who's
first" staring contest ;)
Of course, it should still remain up to project to do differently according
to their constraints.
