This kind of approach has worked well in the Debian community
Right, Debian stopped supporting m68k a long time ago ;-)
This stuff is so getting annoying. I don't understand why all of a sudden there is
such a big urge to kick everything out that is old. Is the Linux kernel supposed
to be an x86-only project?
I don't get it. The port is actively maintained and working well, new drivers are
being added. And there is a vibrant community using it. Try buying a used Amiga
on eBay and you know what I mean.
There is new hardware being developed all the time. Just recently, we added support
for the xsurf100 network card from Individual Computers. And I expect more drivers
to be added in the future.
Is Linux really only a commercial product now so that everything that is not maintained
by a large company needs to go quick?
