Soon. We are currently working to extend the portfolio of content we
deliver for a major release. In the past its only been iso media and
install tree’s, but with CentOS-7 we are also going to deliver...As a

deliver a CentOS-7 release for 32bit x86, ARM and PowerPC in the coming
months."<br></div><br>Similarly he wrote in March:<br><br> "ARM32 build effort on CentOS-7beta ( and ongoing ).
