While waiting eagerly for the 1.2 release, I have a few questions about
future development:

1. What can we expect in the way of a time frame for a peek at 64-bit
userland? Are we talking about 1-2 months, 6 months or a year? This is a
really critical piece of information for ISVs contemplating porting to
UltraPenguin.

2. What is the outlook for Solaris emulation? Will this always require
Solaris shared libs, and a corresponding Solaris license?

3. Has anyone considered tackling the Sun PCi card, the one with the AMD
CPU onboard, and scoping out the task of running Win95 on this card
under Linux, like Sun does under Solaris?

Thanks in advance for any insight.
