Mike,
  Thanks for the offer.  Currently, we do have access to a system at OSL
for sparc development and probably do not need access to yours.
However, I am making sure that everyone on the sparc team sees that your
system is available in case any individual can use your specific
configuration.  We ourselves really do very little kernel work and
probably cannot use it for that.  It is possible, though, that your
system can be useful when we find issues which are system-specific, in
which case you can expect to hear from us further.
  I do not know how you use your system or what operating system you
usually have running on it.  If you happen to run Gentoo/linux on it and
wish to become involved in our sparc project, I invite you to read about
the Architecture Testing program at
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/sparc/at/index.xml and consider if
you are interested in that.

Thangs again, and
Regards,
Ferris
