He said that using bochs that project could start even without having
the hardware, as bochs now supports x86-64 arch. He also filled a bug
to create debian-x86-64 list, but I think that some more work must to
be done for the list to be created.
AFAIK he hasn't done any more, anyway, I'm CCing him.
