Well, I'm lurking with a Sparc IPX and a Sparc2 clone (Opus) with 64mb memory each... I couldn't do the code... but I'm willing to work on docs and testing. I've got 10 years of sysadmin work on SunOS, Solaris, BSD, SysV... so I could work on installation docs and such. I've got Sparc 2's with the SparcUP chip and some Sparc 10's I could test on at work. bill ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- bpechter@monmouth.com|pechter@pechter.dyndns.org|pechter@pechter.bsdonline.org Three things never anger: First, the one who runs your DEC, The one who does Field Service and the one who signs your check.
