+## Phasing out i386 Support in Dragonfly - Discussion
+
+On IRC a discussion started if - and how - i386 support in DragonFly BSD should be phased out in the next e.g. 2 years.
+This page should serve as a central point to note down arguments, pro/cons etc in a structured and organized way to prevent the discussion to repeat over and over again using the same point, etc.
+
+Points noted down here can be totally subjective and be posted anonymously - but I would like to suggest that you mark them with you name or irc nick. They should be formulated concise and as short as possbile (no poetry please).

+### Pros and Cons on removing i386

+ * #### Pros
+    * free developer resources to concentrate on x86-64 (lentferj)
+
+ * #### Cons
+    * ...
+
+
+### Pros and Cons on turning 3.4-i386 into a bug-fix-only release with LTS for about 2 years, but no more feature updates
+
+
+  * #### Pros
+     * ...
+
+  * #### Cons
+     * i386 user base might still be pretty big (has to be evaluated) and would be curtained off also from none-64bit specific improvments.
+
+
+
+### Pros and Cons on keeping i386 alive in the same way as it is now (e.g. there will be a i386-3.6 release, etc), but announcing i386 EOL for end of 2014.
+
+  * #### Pros
+     * ...
+
+  * #### Cons
