As an alpha user, I feel that the alpha should NOT be migrated to a 64-bit time_t until & unless the i386 is migrated. I think we all can agree that due to a corporate knife in the back, the alpha will have a much shorter lifespan than the x86. I seriously doubt there will be any alphas running FreeBSD 36 years from now. Drew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
