Hi,

We would like to offer a worker running the latest Oracle Solaris. For now,
we have just a SPARC machine ready; we are looking into an Intel one as well
but have no ETA for that one yet.

There are still some open issues (all with PRs) that might result in test
failures and one more weird failure related to leaked semaphores (which I
was not able to resolve yet), but our internal buildbot is green or orange
most of the time.

We are committed to maintaining this bot and analyzing/reporting/possibly
fixing failures found with this bot.

Just a question (with no bearance on outcome). Is this a company
sponsored effort to maintain Python on Oracle Solaris?

Yes, we (that is Oracle and its Solaris team) decided to offer this worker with a goal to maintain Python on Solaris as it is a vital core FOSS component for us (and AFAIK several OpenSolaris forks as well).

(Hope I understood the question correctly.)

Jakub


Thank you maintaining this.
