Re: Is there a powerpc64 machine to test some ports on?

Thanks for the quick feedback. I applied for the OSUOSL project. But I don't see any FreeBSD project on the website. It looks very Linux oriented. Let's see if it works out. NB: the last powerpc64 package build looks to be from February '24. Which makes me wonder if there is real interest in powerpc ports/packages or that I should spend my time somewhere else as I don't even have the hardware myself. Regards, Ronald.
