AMD Opteron Equipment for Development/Testing
AMD will be providing (4) 2P AMD Dual Core Opteron based systems to help
with dev, testing and QA.
In addition we will be happy to have our Java team assist with
development support issues around x86-64 and multi-core.
Please let us know if there are any other ways we can help Geronimo.

Very excellent! We could certainly use the hardware in gbuild.
Your timing couldn't be any better as I am very nearly finished with
a JMS-based, distributed, build system. It's an extension of
Continuum that runs as an agent and pulls work from a jms queue, runs
it, and pushes the result onto a jms topic. We should be maxing out
the capacity of the machines in the gbuild network very soon. This
will make a huge difference!
When do you expect the machines will be online?

I'd be happy to help you remedy that. ;)

That would actually be extremely convenient. Nice to have a fast
switch between the boxes rather than a large span of internet.

Kyle,
Very cool !
If the machines need to live in a datacenter with some admin support. we
would be glad to host it at Simula's cage along with the other gbuild
servers.

Thanks for the infusion Kyle. This is excellent.
Once the donation is made we should probably update our Website acknowledging
AMD's contribution and commitment :)

What an incredible donation - woooooooohooooooooo!!!
Will there be an operating system pre-installed on them? Will these be
hosed at AMD? Is there anything that you need from the Geronimo team?
Please let us know.
And a big *THANK YOU* to AMD!!!
BTW, we should set up a page on the website that lists all the
hardware contributions as a thank you to the contributors.
