I will retire this summer, and no more IBM resource for PowerPC openSUSE
Hello there, For you information, I will retire from work this summer and so will stop also my work for PowerPC on openSUSE. IBM decided to not allocate a new resource as my replacement, so you will be on your own to continue PowerPC support on openSUSE. -- Michel Normand

Can you shed a bit more light on what you are currently doing as a PowerPC maintainer for openSUSE? I'm the primary maintainer for the 32-bit and 64-bit big-endian ports in Debian, so I might be able to help out. I assume we don't need any build server capacity, do we? Adrian

I am monitoring * Factory and Leap PowerPC projects in OBS for package build failures, * openQA related tests to be able to have related iso/repo snapshots to be published. I previously tried to summarize that activity in the wiki page https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:PowerPC/TODO
