The build we did for the Pi was more an internal proof-of-concept rather
than something we intended for public consumption. It was a helpful
excercise for us to learn what might be involved in producing a
supported ARM client in the future.

Unfortunately we weren't hugely impressed by the Pi's performance as a
thin client (I guess the hardware is cheap for a reason). ARM in general
is very interesting for us moving forward however, and it is one point
we will be discussing for the future roadmap.

Regards,
