I think that there is little doubt that they are referring to z/Series in that article. However, this idea is still in the proposal stage so it can possibly be averted. All Debian/390 users and proponents of truly Free Software on the mainframe should let the Debian Project know that this platform is worthy of support....at least as much as the Itanium if not more.
