Umm, shouldn't we mark it as unmaintained in this case?

Or do we have someone who has one of those and is willing to do the
(not very much) to make sure it keeps compiling and booting?

Hi,

We could do that too, I am not quite sure what the status is at SGI
these days. CC'ing Robin Holt who can probably tell us whether they want
to add a name or mark it unmaintained.

Cheers,
Jes

Why don't we just add me as the maintainer.  I can set up a script to
compile and boot it once a week on a few common configs.  I think I
already have that for testing the x86_64 drivers/misc/sgi-xp bits so it
should be no significant increase in work.

I will work today on getting the linux-altix@sgi.com mailing list working
again if it is not already and then ensuring I am on that list.

Thanks,
Robin

Ok, just to be nice, I'd suggest you send me the patch to do that with
authorship and sign-off. In fact, maybe we can just combine it with
Jes' patch, and just have both of yours sign-off.

I will do that as soon as I get the linux-altix mailing list straightened out.
