In this context, I'm using \"supported\" to mean \"tested in CI\".\n\nWe currently have a situation where CI has not been green for days because of the addition of AIX. [AIX currently fails to build with some frequency.](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/8239) Hopefully that will be resolved soon, making this specific pain point go away. But I think it may be worth hammering out some larger issues:\n- Who decides what platforms belong in CI?\n- How is the decision made?\n- Might we be able to improve the process for adding platforms to CI to reduce the disruption to CI?\n\n/cc @nodejs/build @nodejs/ctc @nodejs/testing\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/Trott","@type":"Person","name":"Trott"},"datePublished":"2016-08-25T00:17:00.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":16},"url":"https://github.com/8265/node/issues/8265"}
