Well, whenever I've seen it discussed, there's been an understanding
that there's a difference there; we do ship a lot of non-release-
blocking media, after all. The idea was that declaring that i686 media
are not blocking is less drastic than out-and-out dropping them, and
gives WGs / SIGs the power to choose whether they want to keep shipping
the images or not. So I'd say you still have a choice to make here: do
you want to keep producing non-blocking 32-bit Workstation media in a
sort of 'here they are if you REALLY want them' way, or just stop
producing them entirely?
I don't think they'll stop being produced/shipped unless you
specifically ask releng to stop producing them, and it might be nice to
have that tracked as a Change or similar indeed.
