Great initiative. I've been waiting for this a long time, and I look
forward to helping out with the port! :-)

I posted a message to the Slackware development forum quite a while back
about maybe starting up an unofficial Alpha port. The port never got
started, but I got two mails from people who where interrested in helping
out. If they are not on your list of persons, then I suggest you add
them.
The interrested people are:
Mathew Lee <lmathew@okstate.edu>
Chris Selivanow <cselivanow@qwicnet.com>

Just posted this to the list ;-)

Looking forward to it. I suggest the ported stuff is made available to
people through FTP or CVS.

Couldn't agree more!
