[Mono-list] Platforms Mono will support?

I've been lurking on this list for only a short time so please excuse me 
if I've missed some of the conversation details - I'm slowly going through 
the list archives.

I have to agree with the sentiment below that porting Mono to different 
architectures should have hight priority - which brings me to ask about 
the state of the SPARC port.  I've noticed that it's listed as being in 
progress and that there are a couple of sparc files in mono/arch/sparc/.
What's the status of the port and what is the roadmap for the port?

I've got a sparc machine just itching to be used and I'd like to help with 
this effort if possible.

Regards,

Martin
