Not only that. 11 architectures, that reads *really* good. But I fear that one or the other might die at some time. While collecting data for http://lug-owl.de/~jbglaw/linux-ports/ , I noticed that for example Ataris (only as an example - there are other boxes / boards which are to disappear) are on their best way to die out. 2.2.x is by possibility the "latest" kernel which supported these boxes and there seems to be no real efford to re-support them in the 2.5.x / 2.7.x timeline. It would be *really* cool to have some Debian Text Centre. I know that there are autobuilders available for all architectures, but they fullfill a different need (-> a hopefully stable box to compile all the userspace). But that's only half of the truth. We also need some boxes running the bleeding edge stuff to recognize risig problems _early_. I could basically give some machines for such a Test Centre, but unfortunately, I don't have a place to put them to, nor do I have power and appropriate connectivity. Maybe some university could offer some room in some dark cellar?!
