the stability of the Intel drivers from stable Slackware).

Not to mention our friend cough cough Martin grasslin who posted such
an encouraging post earlier this month.
He seems to think all systems aren't worth it.
Sad Really

I see many projects are against supporting other
FOSS systems,
but I think we need to take all the patches we can. Until there
is a reason not to, we should do it. This goes for distros as
well. By allowing development on all platforms it also helps
expose issues (think about all the FTBFS we get on fedora but not
ubuntu :P)
Personally I didn't really see such opinions against supporting
non-GNU/Linux FOSS systems, except for Lennart Poettering who seems
to think every open source project should support only the latest
(and supposedly superior to everything else) Fedora/RHEL and let
other platforms die in hell.
