| 5 | +# AltArch SIG |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +The purpose of this SIG is to maintain support for alternate (non-mainstream) architectures like x86_32 and Raspberry Pi. |
| 8 | +This SIG will work in close collaboration with the Core SIG to ensure all builds remain synchronized with the AlmaLinux OS 10 releases and maintains compatibility with RHEL ecosystem standards. |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +## How to Join |
