Eventually, this will be the huge difference.
not in our view. putting in packages later would happen also in the clone way when we 2 packagers would take our ethusiasm back to an usual level. we are just trying to make the best of our resources.
we want to do this all together with the ArchLinux developers and community. we want to keep using all the great tools and resources Arch already offers.
What sorts of things do you want to "do all together"? Do you mean you just want to use the tools? If so, that's fine. Even frugalware does that.
we want to keep it an official ArchLinux port having all the technical resources.
I don't know what sorts of resources we could offer for you or what you're expecting. It would be better if things were totally separate.
why won't you allow us some modifications in the developement process?
I also don't know about the name. If you want to keep calling it Arch64, you're going to have to make it apparent that it's not following Arch Linux anymore.

sad if you force the port going back to a community project or even a fork. Daniel Pierre
