The server-class ports on powerpc64 have been in good shape for several years. However, the desktop ports are lagging way behind. For instance, we are still working to get gnome and kde working properly. Other desktop environments are going to require more people to take up working on them. I personally would like to see powerpc64 ports at (near-) parity with amd64, but we have a lot of work to go yet. mcl
