Thanks for your work! What is the estimated time when it will go HEAD?

I understand that you provided these so people with another archs could = test whether it doesn't break anything, but what about actual PPC users? = ;) Considering that powerpc is a Tier 2 these days, it's not that easy even = to get svn quickly for it to grab your tree, so I would ask adding = projects_pmac_pmu to the powerpc building.
