I just read about this contest with the aim to "move open source
software to Linux on the PPC platform"

http://www.terrasoftsolutions.com/news/2004/2004-10-06.shtml and
http://www.linuxonpower.com

It says "For developers who do not currently have access to a POWER or
PowerPC development box, free ppc64 shells are available at
www.egr.up.edu/powerlinux."

Asterisk already runs on PPC and TerraSoft are the ones who sponsored
the original work so a mere port isn't going to be suitable for
submission, but I am sure there is still room for other Asterisk
related stuff.

Then again, I am not sure if Asterisk runs on YDL4 already, which is
the native 64bit version based on Fedora. If it doesn't, then making
it work on 64bit LinuxPPC may just be good enough as an entry.
