When we switch to DougBBSD, you'll get to dictate to people how to spend their time. Until then, once a month or so, the sparc64 and powerpc runs will continue. As a data-point, I'm finding that ports that fail on either one also fail on clang (now that we're able to quickly turn clang -exps.) I would make the argument that the tier-2s can serve as canaries here. mcl
