Hi all,
I see that IBM LinuxONE, provides a Z Mainframe running with Linux Red Hat, SUSE OR Ubuntu Server distros.
Do you think that could also be useful for CentOS to be another option for LinuxONE?
Maybe a a CentOS Mainframe SIG can be created to work on this.
Thanks for your attention.

Hi Javier,
That would probably be for the AltArch-SIG , already building CentOS 7 for
- IBM Power 8 (ppc64, ppc64le)
- aarch64 (aka ARMv8 , 64bits)
- armhfp (aka ARMv7 , 32bits)
- i686
But the s390 question was raised already in the past, but finding :
- people willing to bootstrap the rebuild
Well, I'm very interested on contributing with this.
- on dedicated hardware donated to the project (yeah, difficult part)
is a "challenge" :)
Is there any chance that IBM donate this hardware for the CentOS project? Think that will be also useful for that company to have another Linux distro running on their Z Systems.
