vikings.thum:
I can host this machine in our data center in Germany if it is used for development of libre software on PPC.

MPC7500:
That's a very good idea, too.

MPC7500:
Another possibility is kernel.cafe. Don't know if it still exists. I will see.

I love the idea of hosting it in the EU since currently I have found only ppc64(le/el) machines outside of the EU (mainly USA and Brazil), eg.

https://db.debian.org/machines.cgi

How would the process for getting access to the hosted machine look like (and how much transparency could about the real machine usage could you provide)?

And who is paying the admin and power bills then?

MPC7500:
The Debian folks are probably the least likely group of people to need any additional POWER hardware. Since they are already sufficiently supplied with POWER hardware.
