dropping the spu/cell cross compilers for jessie
For jessie, I'll stop building the spu/cell cross compilers out of the binutils and gcc-4.x source packages. Now that we can build cross toolchains using the binary {binutils,gcc-4-x}-source packages, people could build the spu toolchain like it's done for mingw or other targets.

G5 towers
hey debian powerpc folks-- I have the opportunity to get my hands on several Apple G5 towers. If they are not claimed shortly, they will be thrown away. I can probably only make use of one of them as spare parts for an existing G5 tower that i run debian on. I would like to give them away to a good home. Are these things that would be useful to anyone on this list? Can i do anything to facilitate their use for debian or related free software projects? I am in New York City, USA (the G5s are too). Please contact me directly (i don't think i'm subscribed to debian-powerpc at the moment) if you are interested. --dkg signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
