[arch] Arch for server

[Wojciech Szlachta]

Hello everybody,
several weeks ago I wrote about arch and using it on
server, and finally I will be able to start such a
project. The main goals are:
- when the 0.7 will be released, I am going to start
maintaining a repository with just security updates,
so that versions of the programs will not change if
unnecessary (administrator doesn't need to take care
of updating the config files)
- kernels with security patches will be released,
propably openwall and/or grsecurity

I am not going to maintain the extra tree, because I
assume that if somebody is an administrator he is able
to build packages from abs.

Also, if I will have enough time I would like to
release version that would work on i486 architecture
so that one can use arch on old computers as a
firewall or router. Propable I will use optimizations
for i686 but with backward compatibility.

I don't know if that comply with Arch Linux
principles... if yes I would be more than glad to do
it as a part of AL, however if it isn't, I will do it
separately...

Respectfully
Wojciech Szlachta
