Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 20:08:15 -0500 From: Robert Withrow Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Don't see anything about this on the web page. Is there any activity/interest in porting FreeBSD to the PowerPC, and in particular to embedded (non-MAC) systems? I've been pinging "core" people about this but haven't seem to teak their interrest. I gather that BSDI has a powerPC port, but I'd rather use the FreeBSD codebase rather than theirs, for a number of reasons. Perhaps if just select portions of there code were used it would be OK. -- Robert Withrow -- (+1 978 288 8256) BWithrow@BayNetworks.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
