Does that really make sense? While some parts of the kernel are different between the two, bus arch, Ethernet drivers, and basic CPU arch (e.g. register windows) are the same. Certainly the userland toolchain will share many of the same issues/problems between 32bit and 64bit Sparc. Will there be *so* much traffic on this list and those not interested in a particular issue can't just delete the message? Like was said before, lets just establish the directory layout and work from there. This is a *volunteer* project. People will work on those parts that interest them. That is fine, all sparc-lovers can work together filling in the bits w/in the source tree that the are able/want to. -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.ucdavis.edu -or- obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
