+1, although note that there is already a PowerPC community. I think it would be best to rename the latter to "Ports" or somthing similar, and then have this proposed project housed within it. (One of the things we're going to try to do once the governace doc is out of the way is rationalise the number of communities. We have too many communities at the moment, and some would be better off being recast as projects.) -- Rich Teer, SCNA, SCSA, OpenSolaris CAB member President, Rite Online Inc.
