Hi ApacheFriends!
We continue working on adding new features in XAMPP but this time we would like to reduce the amount of work of maintaining them up-to-date.
We checked the demand and the number of downloads of XAMPP for Linux 32 bit and we checked we can remove the support for this platform. We also spend some time trying to support newer components for Linux 32 bit and they usually require changes and patches to support this platform. This will reduce significantly the amount of work for maintaining up-to-date the current three stable versions of PHP 5.5.x, 5.6.y, 7.0.z for XAMPP for Windows, OS X and Linux 64 bit.
We would like to hear your feedback before stop releasing this platform. We will release a new XAMPP version and we will announce this one will be the last XAMPP version that supports Linux 32 bit.
