Any Updates on RS/6000 Support?

Hello!
    I was just wondering whether there had been any developments 
regarding new plans for RS6k support? I found a brief exchange in the 
archives from March of 2004 saying that there were no plans to support 
this architecture. Has this changed at all? I would like to commend you 
folks on porting to the Mac/PPC systems as Apple will soon be abandoning 
we PowerPC devotees, however, looking forward, those of us wishing to 
stay with the hardware platform may be forced to go RS/6000 barring the 
arrival of any new hardware developers. I like AIX and all (it was my 
first UNIX) but it would be nice to be able to run my favourite BSD on 
it! :-D
Thanks!
- Jeff
