If anyone wants to jump in that would be great. I'm going to work on simple stuff first, ie. wrapping libc syscalls to better familiarize myself with the sparc arch. I will not co-ordinate the port as I don't feel I have enough experiance to do so, if someone with a firm understanding of porting or sparc arch would like to step up the job it would be much appreciated.
