I dunno,
Stats are bad. Debian should be maintained for m68k if for no other
reason than there is no other distro for m68k that I know of. I doubt
however that m68k beats arm since there's probably more than a couple
debian using ipaq and zaurus users. Chances are they don't use apt or
popcon much ;) Anyway, there's probably a lot of m68k people which
while they may not actively use m68klinux, they absolutely positively
want to do anything necessary to ensure the continuance of the port. I
fall into that category. I'm going to start working on parted any day
now(tm).
Thanks,
Mark
