Please see what I wrot in DWN a couple of weeks ago: http://www.debian.org/News/weekly/2002/44/ Public Debian Machines for Software Authors. [11]Hewlett-Packard recently expanded their [12]Test Drive Program to support Debian GNU/Linux as well. This program is intended for users who want to sample the 32- and 64-bit servers running a variety of HP and third-party operating systems and applications. This looks like an excellent resource Debian can point upstream package authors to when they need access to a Debian system to resolve porting problems. 12. http://testdrive.hp.com/ Regards, Joey -- Those who don't understand Unix are condemned to reinvent it, poorly.
