[Freedombox-discuss] Introductions

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

I'd say unless you have a specific interest in which hardware we  
should be targetting, I would work with whatever hardware you have  
available.  The beauty of Debian is that it can be just about any  
working computer.  If your software works on Debian/i386 and is  
included in Debian, it will be built for armel, mips, etc. so should  
"just work" on any number of plug computers.
