IBM is sponsoring something as that via the Open Mainframe Project. https://www.openmainframeproject.org/
Everybody can receive free access to a LinuxONE instance to test his software. We want to provide communities all what is necessary to develop for s390x.
Yeah, I'm aware of these offerings but having a dedicated machine with full root access would still be nicer to tinkle around.
For Debian Ports, IBM generously donated one POWER to which I have full access and I can even test kernel patches with. Not sure how far I would get there I was told that the amount of VMs that we can request from SUSE has no hard limit. If you have some usecases please share then with us and we can see what can be done about it.
