Does secondary status mean it will be harder to get ppc rpm packages? Or harder to get ppc version iso images?
Not so much. It just means that builds on the primary arches won't fail if the build fails on a secondary arch, so it will be up to the community built around the secondary arch to ensure that the arch continues to work. The secondary arch group will also be responsible for spinning their release, but the tools we provide make that very easy.
Right. However, the community will also need to provide it's own hosting and build infrastructure, which it currently doesn't have to do today. This is something that a few of us are working on.
Perhaps not. The PPC builders may be able to stay where they are, just become secondary arch builders. Hosting for the arch may be provided by Fedora as well, just in a different directory.
