You are absolutely right. However this discussion is not about what should be the Tier 1 platforms of Qt, but much simpler one: to update the list of Tier 1 and Reference platform configurations to match the ones that there currently are running. The fact that Qt runs fine on a platform is a good starting point. But to be a Tier 1 platform also means a hefty amount of tests running on that etc.

Yours,
