I have no solution for this, but I note that neither do we have CI, nor tests on https://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/summary.html that aren't Intel x86. The compiler list has shrunk to msvc/clang/gcc as well.
I note that at least in theory, other platforms/architectures could be integrated into Drone CI (either the CppAlliance one, or our own), but someone would have to offer to host the clients running the tests.
Any thoughts/solutions?
Is there information anywhere showing which CPUs/platforms the major compilers ( vc++, clang, gcc, Intel C++, Oracle C++ ) run on, along with how to run CI tests ( appveyor, travis CI, ??? ) on those CPUs/platforms ? I have always personally found that figuring out how the major CIs work is a great deal of effort setting up for a Boost library for little additional gain.
