All,

We are about 4-6 weeks away from starting the 5.3 release cycle.  As it
stands, KSE still only works reliably on i386.


I don't have any problems on ia64.


Good to hear =-)


... I'm willing to drop the alpha requirement and maybe even
the sparc64 requirement, but there absolutely will not be a 5.3 until
amd64 is solid.


I think sparc64 should have KSE too. If we already accept that sparc64
is feature incomplete, we set/acknowledge a really bad precedence.


I do too, but there is the difficult fact in that there are few people out there that are willing to work on sparc64. One person offered to try to learn it and tackle it, but that's a lot to ask. As with Alpha, the fate of a platform rests on the people who are willing to work on it, not on whether it is in a particular list.
