Hum,... do you really think that SNI believe that people with enought
money to buy a RMx00 will want to run Linux ? RMx00 are good machines
I had the opportunity to play with somes last year, they were under
SINIX (an SYSVR4 system) which have provision for multi processors box
(I had once an account on a 16 R4400 SNI box with 1Go of RAM, gosh !!
what a BIG box, and it's called RM<something> :)

I'm ok with that, we have to make a decision about the right tools,
and well Ralf can always play with the new ones (I will try them:).

Another coordinator, hum... well hum..., I'm confused, that's for
sure, I think that if things go like they seem to go, we can end up
with a OpenLinux/MIPS laying somewhere ;)
What will be more usefull, code that runs and which is listed in the
TODO list, or a new coordinator ?
Cheers, Stoned.
