First, is there going to be an alpha mailing list I could : subscribe to, to keep an ear on the alpha development? In about six : months I plan on picking up an alpha workstation just 'for the heck of : it', but only if I can put FreeBSD (in any form :b) on it.. freebsd-alpha@freebsd.org should be what you want. Send mail to majordomo to get subscribed. : The other question is, are there any plans to have digital unix binary : emulation? There are currently no plans made that would preclude this possibility. NetBSD and OpenBSD have nice ultrix emulation modules that should be realtaively easy to adapt when the time gomes. Given the superior compiler technology that I'm given to believe that Digital has for its Alpha stuff (compared to gcc), this would not be an unreasonable thing to try to accomplish. Warner
