There are many sparc boxes in the world (and alpha too). CentOS is
dedicated to being the best Enterprise Distro out there.
We are not satisfied just to be the best rebuild of upstream software
for i386 and x86_64, and to provide rapid updates to those products ...
Though CentOS does that better than anyone else offering it for free (in
my opinion).
Since we are not about making money, we will try to provide CentOS for
platforms that the upstream provider might not care to provide, being
that people might not pay $2500/server for it on that platform.
