Just so everyone is on the same page, what is needed to keep sun4v 
viable are people with experience with (or intention to learn about) low 
level architectural and implementation details of the FreeBSD kernel and 
the sun4v hardware platform, who know their way around things like 
pmap.c and other MD places where the kernel interfaces with the "bare 
metal", and who are willing to make a long term (multi-year) commitment 
to supporting the platform.
