Well I'm not sure what to say so I'll just say whats on my mind. It think that a ppc port is becoming useless especially because mac as switched to the intel chips and in a year or two ppc will be pretty much of date. Most geeks that want to run ppc linux on there macs will have a new mactel. It just seems like you guys are trying to put to much work into something that will end up dying in a year or two. Arch64 has a better chance because it is much newer techology. I hope that I don't sound like a complete jerk. On 4/7/06, Alexander Baldeck <kth5@archlinuxppc.org> wrote:
Hey list,
as you may have noticed, Archlinux/PPC does not get as much attention as Archlinux/64 gets. Now that Benoit quit for personal reasons, we are short on manpower to keep the work up. Nevertheless at least I will continue to work on the port but it will never be as usable as any other.
This occasion brings me to the fact that I need to ask for help. We have several open positions I have in mind for give away. So the call goes out to anyone that uses Archlinux/PPC, I know at least 15 people update daily. ;)
If you are interested, please go to http://archlinuxppc.org and read the topmost news. It explains two of the positions that are open at the moment. You would rather like to talk to someone? Don't hesitate and contact me via email.
Best regards,
