Hi, So is there a consensus that sh4 inclusion is what is wanted? If so, is the port at a state where that's feasible. Looking at debian-ports.org, ( http://buildd.debian-ports.org/stats/graph-week-big.png ) you seem to have just under 90% of the archive built. If you're still interested in getting the port into unstable/experimental (and obviously aiming for a release, but that's up to the release team), you need to co-ordinate between DSA (for buildd hardware and hosting), the buildd team (for integration into the main buildd network) the release team (to check they don't want to veto the port), the security team (again to check they have no reason to veto the port). Finally, wearing my ftpmaster hat, if everyone else is happy, I'll be happy to start the archive bootstrapping process with you. Details of the bootstrapping process can be found at: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2008/08/msg00009.html Thanks, Mark -- Mark Hymers <mhy at debian dot org> "I got off at Durham... and fell in love with it instantly.
