The three quad-power5 machines that IBM donated to debian for powerpc64 work, and nobody knew about, and are now sitting in augsbourg (1 used by the augsbourg university, and two maintained by Bastian Blank, who distribute accounts on it). It was my believe that at least one of them should be maintained under the umbrella of the DSA team, in order to have it thrusted to be used to upload packages, but the DSA team refused to have anything to do with them, which i suppose is understandable since they have no time for it. I proposed to handle it for them though, or have Bastian do so, and was equally refused. This is no blame, or something, i can clearly understand your frustration and that i may not have asked at the right time or something, just the machines are mostly underused, which is a shame, they are fast, have good memory, disks and bandwidth, and even the licences for the virtual partitions allowing to create sub machines for different usages.
