Okay folks ...

We'd like to wrap up an RC1 and get this release happening this
year sometime :) Tom mentioned to me that he has no outstandings left on
his plate ... does anyone else have any *show stoppers* left that need to
be addressed, or can I package things up?

Speak now, or forever hold your piece (where forever is the time
between now and RC1 is packaged) ...

I wonder if anybody tried to stop PG in the time of high write
activity with pg_ctl -m immediate stop or power off to see
how recovery works..?

I just uploaded new man pages. I'll probably do them once more in a few
days to catch all the changes.

We need a supported platform list. Let's hear it.

I don't have it running here anymore. Is there anyone on the list
who can test on HPUX 9?

Linux/PPC (LinuxPPC 2000 Q4 distro tested here; 2.2.18 kernel I think)

What processor? Tatsuo had tested on a 603...

It's a Powerbook G3 (FireWire model), but I'm not sure which chip is
inside (and Apple's spec sheet isn't too helpful)...

From what I can tell (which isn't much ;) Apple at least calls the
processor a "G3". Which accounts for why we can't find another
designation.

Not sure where it fits into the lineup I *used* to know about (for
embedded systems) but I don't care. Will refer to it as a "G3" for
now...

Tatsuo, I have a separate listing for "mklinux" for the 7.0 release. Is
that distro still valid and unique? Or is there a better way to
represent the PPC options under Linux?

mklinux is older Motorola 68k-based systems
LinuxPPC is the newer powerPC-based systems

Hmm. I have mklinux listed as being on the 750. My vague recollection is
that the distinction is between NuBus and PCI machines (not necessarily
in that order), but...

I also vaguely recalled that the distros had merged (or something :/

I think MkLinux is completely different from Linux/PPC. Will test RC1
on my MkLiux box soon...

No. MkLinux runs on Power PC based system also. I believe there is a
x86 based MkLinux exists somewhere.
