Re... If no one objects, we'll take action to remove QPX support soon.
Thanks.

Hi, everyone,

I would like to know if anyone is still making use of the support in the
PowerPC backend for the IBM BG/Q supercomputer, including the support for
its QPX vector instruction set. If you are, please reply. I'm not aware of
any still-running BG/Q machines, and if no one is making use of this
functionality, I propose that we remove it.

Thanks again,
Hal
