[repost due to wong mailing list address - sorry for that] Dear Debian team,
due to lack of time I am planning to donate my hardware to a dedicated open source project that is contributing to improve the open source software availability or hardware support (eg. GPUs) for IBM Power 9: - Mainboard: RaptorCS Blackbird (TM) - IBM Power 9 CPU (8 cores) - Heat sink For detailled specs see: https://www.raptorcs.com/content/BK1B02/intro.html I have opened a broad public "request for proposals" in the RaptorCS community forum (and therefore not in the Debian wiki hardware wanted page): https://forums.raptorcs.com/index.php/topic,386.msg3136.html Please feel free to raise your hand if interested (as new post in the forum or "privately" via direct email to me) and provide at least this information: - Intended use of the hardware (and esp. why real hardware helps you more than an existing Power9 virtual or hosted machine) - Destination country (sorry, only within the EU, see below) - Public repos proving some of your current and past contributions to Power architecture (if you are not a publicly "known" debian contributor) Please note that I am using a "non-spam" email account for this donation (also to stay as much anonymous as possible, but Paul Wise already received my real email address upfront). Best regards The donator PS: Important restriction: I can ship it only within the EU (European Union), since I do not want to go through all the trouble of customs declaration again... PS 2: Of course I will prove being the legal owner of the hardware via a copy of RaptorCS invoice to the recipient of the hardware donation.
