Hi,

I've just committed a change to britney's configuration, removing all
special-casing of the armhf and s390x architectures.  Both now have
release architecture status for wheezy.

So, what does this mean in practice?

- architecture-specific bugs affecting armhf or s390x may be
release-critical

- installability issues on the architectures are now blockers for
testing migration (actually, they have been for a couple of weeks
already)

- out-of-date binaries on the architectures are now blockers for testing
migration

Thanks to everyone involved in getting both architectures to this point.

Adam
for the Release Team
