I'm Davide Barbieri <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (the last one seems to have mail problems). I had the account on master.debian.org for debian sparc porting. I had written a little document in sgml, about the status of debian sparc porting, and I have posted it some times ago on this list. I have also build some debian packages for sparc, and have put them on my sparc/linux machine: test.dei.unipd.it. These packages are available via anonymous ftp on the same machine. Sorry, but I wasn't able to put them on master (slow connection). These packages were simply recompiled on sparc/linux using the sources available from debian. I have build a libc5-5.2.13.deb for sparc/linux but haven't test yet. I'm working also on boot-floppies and SILO packages for Debian Sparc. I'm also studying a gcc-2.7.2 package.
