'''Maybe something like:''' Goal: To enable the current version of Fedora to be used on low-power ARM computer systems. We will do this by setting up the Fedora build system, named ''Koji'', on a cluster of ARM computers. These computers will build an ARM-compatible version of each of the approximately 15,000 Fedora software packages. The ''Koji-Shadow'' software will be used to monitor the main Fedora Koji system -- which builds software packages for PCs -- so that every time a new software package is prepared for PCs it will automatically also be built on our Koji system for ARM computers. The resulting packages will be placed in a publicly-accessible repository so that they can be used worldwide.
 
 
To provide support for ARM by managing the software used to compile the fedora software for koji. It will also support software that will automatically prepare updates for koji once they are available for the the application.
