[Fwd: Announcing GinGin64: A Technology Preview for the AMD64Platform]

[Jim Hayward <jimhayward earthlink net>]

Kind of off topic, but in case anyone is interested. This was just
posted to Red Hat's new AMD64 mailing list. From the package list it
appears to essentially be RH 9 compiled for AMD's new Opteron processor.

Now if I only had an Opteron system to try it out on. ;-)

Regards,
