I should add that I also realize that s390x is now part of the

Shouldn't it be made easier for customers to use Fedora and/or
Opensuse
on s390x in order to promote wider testing?
Well, CentOS for s390/s390x certainly does exist, and it makes a very
nice RHEL substitute. OpenSuSE would be nice, though; a fully-GPL
SLES-equivalent would be even nicer, but the problem, as always, is
that the development community for s390/s390x Linux is tiny compared
to other platforms, and finding someone with the time and energy to
do and maintain the ports is hard.
Some folk have the time. Does anyone have the money?
