Hello, We're working on porting FS to the POWER architecture, from PPC G4 to POWER 8, with specific hardware and software platforms to be determined by the level of interest expressed in any given one. We've strongly advocated the use of PPC/POWER processors since early on, for both general purpose computing and in specific problem domains. The decision by IBM, Tyan, and other industry leaders to undertake the OpenPOWER initiative, combined with the recent availability of a POWER 8 system from Tyan [http://www.tyan.com/campaign/openpower/index.html], has reaffirmed our commitment to, and strengthened our belief in, the potential of this architecture, and how outstanding it is from any number of perspectives - including cost vs. benefit. Currently, we're testing a build of a port of the latest release of FreeSWITCH using G4 and G5 based systems capable of running Debian "Jessie". We've been careful to maintain the structure of the supporting libraries, building them only as .deb packages. Feature test results so far have been better than promising; and, we have no reason to believe the results of the remaining tests will be any less so. If you're interested in development of FS on a PPC / POWER platform, or would like more information on the current status of our project, please contact me.
