Because Archlinuxarm is unsupported by Archlinux. it is a seperate
project. The same reason archbang, chakra, bridgelinux, and
archlinux-ppc are seperate as well.

Grrrr. Thanks Daniel,

That's what was confusing -- ARM certainly looks official flying the Arch
Linux trademarked logo, etc....


So I guess anyone can create any forum and fly the Arch logo? Sounds like a
"cease and desist" letter would fix that problem.
