i386 architecture will be dropped starting with eoan (Ubuntu 19.10)
Steve Langasek announces the resulting decision that from the 19.10 release forward, the i386 (32 bit) architecture will no longer be supported. Steve gives some background information, and links to mitigations for those affected by the removal of i386 packaging in the archives.

The decision is widely covered in the media. Here are some selections of the coverage from our editors:

Rumour: Ubuntu NOT Dropping 32-bit App Support After All?
Latest developments:
Joey Sneddon writes on a clarification of intent by Canonical’s Steve Langasek, Steve relates that rather than dropping 32 bit support in the 19.10 release, 32 bit libraries are to be frozen at the 18.04 LTS versions. Meaning that 32 bit libraries will continue to work on Ubuntu 19.10. A link to the Discourse discussion is given; Further information of how i386 applications "can be run on versions of Ubuntu later than 19.10” is pending.

Building a PPA for s390x
Elizabeth Krumbach Joseph relates some background on porting linux code to the mainframes with s390x architecture. Now we are advised that with the porting of the code we have access to an IBM Z server; this access allows the building of PPAs as well! Elizabeth produces a test and documents her procedure, pointing out there are IBM "mainframe-driven security products” in the cloud. Elizabeth concludes that those interested in a Ubuntu-based development platform on s390x can contact her via her email.
