I just learned that RHEL 7 on Aarch64 (64bit Arm) is end of life. Copr, where I build syslog-ng packages, removes RHEL/CentOS 7 Aarch64 packages in about half a year and it is not possible to build new packages there any more. CentOS 7 on the other hand keeps
going on Aarch64 (using CentOS 8 kernel and CentOS 7 userland).</div>

There might be a workaround for the situation (using a different build service), but it's quite a lot extra effort. So, before investing any time and effort into keep building CentOS 7 Aarch64, I want to know, if there is a significant number of syslog-ng users,
who keep using CentOS 7 on Aarch64.</div>
