No one here is saying that quality code contributions for IA-64 won't be accepted... just that no one cares enough to at the moment to put the time in to make it happen. If you *really* want native IA-64 support, put the code in and make it happen (e.g. open source). Personally in reflection I feel that PowerPC has a better chance of getting implemented officially just because more people have access to the hardware. Thanks! -- Alex von Gluck IV ps.
