Hi Robert. Thank you for your interest and willingness to help. The easiest way to reach the folks working on the PPC support in Fedora is either via the mailinglist[1] or even more direct via IRC on freenode[2]. Keep in mind though that at least Dan Horak, Karsten Hopp, Adrian Reber and Jiri Skala are located in Europe, so depending on your timezone you might have more luck with the mailinglist. We'll be adding tracker bugs for the various secondary archs for which we want to do a release for Fedora 16 in the next few days, so if you find an issue you can then link it to those tracker bugs. Thanks again!
