What do you mean by " i've built a centos for my powerpc laptop" ? The complete distro ? a ppc package ? If that's the complete disto, are your patches available somewhere ? (as some packages including glibc.ppc and kernel doesn't build for ppc by default) I'd be curious to know about all that ! :D

Same here! :)

PS : we have a centos-ppc meeting this Friday, in a pre-Fosdem meeting, to discuss about the current ppc/ppc64, and the infrastructure around it.

Well, I was in IRC mid December and we (z00dax, amongst others) were discussing a PowerPC port of CentOS (especially as upstream will provide a PowerPC port of RHEL6). I do have some maschines here (I also could and would like to enable shell access to), the biggest one being a dual Power4+ (1.45GHz) 275. Also, I could provide ISP services like web space, maybe CVS/SVN stuff, mailing lists etc for free.
