Hello all!


Is there anyone out there who might be interested in porting NetBSD
to the Sun OpenSparc T1 architecture?   This is a very interesting
chip: It has 8 cores with 4 hardware threads per core, plus some other
interesting tricks up its sleeve...

Getting this to work would be a big step forward for the Sparc64 port
and SMP on NetBSD in general.

If you are interested, you have the necessary know-how and some
spare time please contact me off-list.

Note that there's both Linux and FreeBSD people working on this so
we wouldn't be all alone. :-)


Thanks -- Volker
