Hi guys,
there seem to be a few people interested in the Alpha port for CentOS-5. And here is what the situation is :
1) There is a functional Alpha available at my home.
2) I am not interested in doing any of the porting work but will be happy to help with some parts of the testing.
So, now the situation is - how many people are really interested ? And if there is enough interest - how many people really want to put in the efforts ( and have the know how ) to work on this ?
If there is enough interest, I am happy to make my Alpha available over remote access to the people who are going to work on the port. the machine has enough ram and enough resources to handle most of the work, I've been building CentOS-4 kernels and gcc / glibc on there - its a dual cpu EV5 series machine.
Finally, if there is enough interest - then I'd like to move the conversation to centos-devel list.
