Myself, Jeff Garzik, Richard Henderson, Phil "Bryce" Copeland and
various people from DEC/COMPAQ/HP have been slowly making evil
plans to work on an alpha port of the current distribution
sometime soon. We have no details as of yet, but once we are
ready to start building and pushing packages we'll let people
know here. The intent is to make a Fedora/Alpha distribution.
Oh, cool !
kudos, power, and unlimited 32/24 time to you guys !!
All the best,
cristian
That is all the detail I have for now. When there is more
information, we will announce it here.
