Hello, I was curious to know if anyone would be any interest among the Debian developers attending OLS (www.linuxsymposium.org) this summer to discuss the future of the Debian port to AMD64. I will be securing us a space with the organizers, but if there is only a low volume of interested bodies then we can get together at a pub somewhere.
And since I am on the topic, I have a few Debian-AMD64 tid-bits to
convey:
- there is a alioth.debian.org project for the purpose of this port
https://alioth.debian.org/projects/debian-x86-64/
- there is a temporary mailing list (see CC line) that was setup while
bug 162668 is being resolved.
- for those that don't already know, Arnd Bergmann, has done some
great work in porting the toolchain packages and the kernel; you can
view them here:

Regards,
Bart
(impatiently awaiting his amd64 hardware)
