In 2021, there was an RFC[1] posted on Arch Linux for the x86-64-v3 micro-architecture port. This got me very interested, and I started the "CachyOS"[2] project with Hamad Marri and Vladislav Nepogodin, which was intended as a learning and enthusiasts project.
Over the years, we have integrated the x86-64-v3 and x86-64-v4 integration into this project. Additionally, I have further maintained the custom kernel "linux-cachyos"[3], and also started working together with upstream kernel developers as well as reporting bugs in the kernel community.
If you're accepted as a package maintainer, will there be any new efforts to bring official x86-64-v3 builds to Arch? This is something that's been stuck in limbo. I'd be very inclined to vote in favor of you joining if you plan to assist with moving us closer to that goal.
