If you  need some help in testing, drop me a note.

I agree. Having a 32-bit image supporting all RPi's (including RPi 3)
and one for 64-bit supporting only the RPi 3 would be perfect.
However, in the meantime i can deal with different images.
I'm especially interested in a 64-bit image for the RPi 3...

Sure. I'm just asking, doesn't want to put any pressure on anyone...

Thanks for the update!
