Speaking of which, now that we have:
SCO/Intel -> Linux/Intel Linux/Intel -> Linux/Alpha DU/Alpha -> Linux/Alpha SunOS/Sparc -> Linux/Sparc Solaris/Sparc -> Linux/Sparc (Pardon me if I missed any)
running, especially the later two, are there any plans to get
Solaris/Intel -> Linux/Intel
working? David & Miguel's Sparc/Linux paper seemed to intimate that Solaris emulation was not hard, even after SunOS emulation took all the reserved slot thingie-whatsits. I'm curious, given that the four applications which run on Solaris/Intel might, if runnable under Linux, draw an entire 10 new customers to the Linux community. In the face of this onslaught by Sun, no emulation suite is too low for us to consider. 8^)
