Proposal to remove 32bit support.
Given the nature of ATS and its focus exclusively on high performance environments, I suggest we throw off the bonds of 32bit support going forward. I’m unaware of anyone running ATS on 32bit systems or developing ATS on 32bit systems.
I propose removing 32bit support in Apache Traffic Server in the 5 release and forward.

Exactly. The RM for v4.2.x even offered extending LTS for this release if there’s real demand for it.

Exactly. The RM for v4.2.x even offered extending LTS for this release if there’s real demand for it.

Specifically, what would we remove? Should we also review the set of supported OS versions?

+1 - I don't know of anyone running ATS on 32-bit and I would highly recommend not running it on 32-bit.
