OSU is giving us (use of) an itanium box.  Do we have any efforts underway
to port to the itanium?  If not, does someone want to start one?

Contact me off list for more details.

I have Gentoo running on a cluster of six HP (sorry, I mean "hp") rx2600s.
The devs are waiting for me to put together a stage1 tarball, but I've been
too busy with work.  Hopefully, I'll have some time in the coming week.

Just an update.  I have a rough stage1 tarball and am running bootstrap.sh
under it right now.  It's working okay so far.

I still need to make an elilo ebuild (unless someone else has one already)
and bring my other IA64 ebuilds up to date with the current stable versions.

With any luck, I'll have a "real" stage1 by tomorrow.  A bootable ISO is
still a ways off, but one could probably bootstrap from a Debian disc.
