There is much to do... depends on your interest: - 2.5 kernel work (check out the parisc-linux mailing list) - hppa toolchain, especially binutils and gdb - porting more packages to hppa. a lot of packages still need work for C++, etc (http://auric.debian.org/~tausq/buildd/hppa-latest.html has a list of packages that don't yet build for various reasons) for installer work, debian-installer probably doesn't work on hppa yet, so you can look at that as well. have fun :-) randolph -- Randolph Chung Debian GNU/Linux Developer, hppa/ia64 ports http://www.tausq.org/
