Just from a demand perspective, this summer Apple will drop support for
OSX 10.5 and within a short time leave Mac G4 users without security
updates - there's a lot of decent hardware out there that's not quite
five years old yet. Fedora 15 on ppc32 might just gain a number of new
users at that point.
Thanks for all the work!
