You might also want to read Kelly> the freebsd-sparc archives first to get up to speed. I've read the past three months' of messages. I'd like to say that my primary focus on the port would be to help get the IPX and IPC supported, since that's the platform I have at home. I have a few of them, so I can test on something other than a production machine. I just need to score a few hard drives. I am still interested. Who is the project manager? The web site hasn't been updated in six months. Where do I start reading? Help me help you, you guys.
