As i hear about this first time from this public mailing list 'announcement', i have to say that this does not consern ia64, s390, s390x, alpha (or maybe sparc). I am quite fed up about how these things are handled. Usually i find out things like this. It's always nice to read about it on public mailing list first time. -- Pasi Pirhonen - upi at iki.fi - http://iki.fi/upi/ Top postings silently ignored
