Yes, please. I'm not just trying to make some proclamation of how it is.
This is a community supported matter, so if the community will support
Lubuntu PPC, I'm all for carrying on like normal. I have struggled to even
bring the topic up, so if the community supports ending it, I want to hear
about that, too. No matter what, I don't feel comfortable acting on this
alone.

Well, ideally we still need testing on the Trusty/Xenial point releases, at
minimum. Any support you can drum up there would be appreciated.

And as Herminio said, there is still support in the Linux community for
PPC. If this spells the end for Lubuntu PPC, at least we can say it's not
the end for Linux (or UNIX— see NetBSD, for example) PPC.
