You can add me to the list, as well as a couple of other Debian users
here at UM.

I would have sworn that Miquel did a bunch of compiling of Alpha
packages a couple of months back (or at least had things such that he
was experimenting with libc6) ---anyone have a feel for what would be
involved in getting Debian "self-hosting" on the AXP?

Oh, and I'll volunteer for X, since I _really_ want to get xf86quake
up and going...

Mike.

Mike Neuffer, Bdale Garbee, Miquel and Danny of Cistron, and I have
all purchased DEC ALPHA Multias in the past two weeks. This bodes well
for a 1.2 release on them.

It's totally incomplete.  A few developers just bought Alphas, so
it'll get rolling pretty soon.  The Sparc distribution is also just
getting started right now.

It'll probably be another 3 to 6 months before distributions for all
four architectures (alpha, i386, m68k, sparc) are complete and can
bootstrap themselves.
