Details Triggered by PR216699, I started looking for references of pc98 in our doc tree. Along the way, I came upon some old remnants of alpha and ia64 architectures we once supported, so I removed those as well. I was not sure about the build server section, so I made a best guess edit. a) Apply the patch on the head checkout of the doc tree

Comment Actions I think most of this shouldn't be removed. The PR is quite a bit wrong, too since it is worried about the Tiers chapter in the CG saying that pc98 was removed in 12. However, 11.x is still a supported release and we should still be documenting pc98. I think keeping the small, stub pages for removed architectures in their current state listing when they were supported is also helpful on balance. They are clearly marked as unsupported on the platforms page. To Ed's point, I wonder how current any of the sentex machine list is.
Comment Actions Thanks John for your feedback. In light of this, I think it is best to abandon this revision.
