Hello fellow developers,
Bill Buck of Genesi S.รก.r.l. (the company that donated 10+ PowerPC boxes
to Gentoo developers recently) has asked me to ask you to take the
developer survey available at this location:
http://www.ppczone.org/modules/banners/click.php?op=click&bid=3
The survey is being conducted by Freescale Semiconductor (former
Motorola Semiconductor), the designer of the PowerPC processor. Genesi
has done a lot of legwork to increase Freescale's interest in Linux
recently. Previously Freescale only showed a mild interest in Linux but
Genesi has convinced them that there is a future for Linux, not only on
servers and embedded systems but in other kinds of applications as well.
They have already invested a large amount of money, for instance by
donating 100+ PowerPC boxes to different projects (including Gentoo). If
we show them that a lot of people use Linux on PowerPC desktop boxes,
and other solutions, hopefully they will invest even more money in the
future.
