TDE on Raspbian?

Hi all,

I got myself the latest Raspberry Pi 4 for Christmas. It's a pretty powerful machine advertised as 
a fully-fledged desktop PC and with 4 1.5GHz cores in the CPU and 4GB of RAM it delivers on that 
promise. The primary operating system on the Pi is Raspbian, a distribution directly based on 
Debian, running an LXDE desktop environment. I was wondering how much effort would it take to 
bring TDE to the Pi? I'm guessing that architecture would be the primary obstacle (Pi is based on 
ARM), but would it pose much of a challenge? Raspberry Pi certainly seems like a potent market 
for TDE. Maybe it is worth the effort of having an ARM release for Raspbian? Maybe this is a good 
opportunity to bring in new users? I wonder what is the devs' take on this?
