== Goal description ==

This goal comprises all the changes required to support installation and execution of binaries from multiple architectures on a single machine.
This includes not only the usual amd64/i386 bi-arch systems but also any other combination, including cross-compiling environments for embedded systems.

== Current status ==

 * The starting point is the [[UbuntuWiki:MultiarchSpec|Multi-Arch specification]].
 * There's [[UbuntuWiki:MultiarchSpec#Unresolved issues|some issues to resolve before the final spec]].
 
== How to help ==

 * [[http://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/|Join discussion]] with ideas, specially for the unsolved issues.
 * Help development of affected packages
 * Fix bugs which may be blocking those from going multi-arch.
