Subject: RFC: Removing Visual Workstation and NUMAQ
Date: Tue, 25 Feb 2014 12:30:36 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <530CFD6C.7040705@zytor.com> (raw)
I would like to remove Visual Workstation and NUMAQ from the x86 kernel.
This removes a fair bit of code which from the current looks is only
being made to suffer general patches:
Visual Workstation:

If there still are people who care about these platforms, please speak up.
