It buys us the ability to run epiphany (shipping all of the deps for 32bit
epiphany is a world of pain), puts us in line with all of the other 64bit
distributions, and hopefully gives some leverage for the plugin writers to
make 64bit plugins available among other things.  I would expect the 64bit
java plugin to be available in the FC2 timeframe, for all other plugins,
make the request to the vendors now. If Open Office gets 64bit clean any
time soon, I would expect Fedora to drop all 32bit apps by default, and
simply include a group of libs for compatability with the average 3rd party
apps.
