If we do that and these variations add patches, how do we ensure that 
they dont have trojans or exploits?

* Process for new folks interested to create Fedora for architecture X - 
Owners, bug tracking, build system, hosting.
* Figure out how secondary architectures can become primary ones
* Do we want to move PPC as a secondary architecture?
* Alpha. We probably need to contact the Alphacore 
(http://alphacore.info/) folks and ask if they are interested. Note that 
CentOS 4.2 and above has alpha core support.
