+ <description>
+ The IA-64 Development Project is devoted to keeping Gentoo in good shape
+ on the IA-64 architecture.

+
+ <longdescription>
+
+ <p>The Gentoo/IA-64 Project works to keep Gentoo the most up to date and
+ fastest IA-64 distribution available. We are responsible for the
+ maintainance of all IA-64 specific meta-data and the testing of all other
+ non IA-64 specific meta-data on the IA-64 architecture to ensure
+ portability. Portability implies reuseable meta-data.</p>
+
+ <p>Bugs are tracked and resolved from the <uri
+ link="http://bugs.gentoo.org">Gentoo bug tracker</uri> and correspondence is
+ maintained on the various IA-64 related mailinglists. (gentoo-IA-64-user,
+ gentoo-IA-64-dev and those belonging to the sub-projects).</p>

+
+ <goals>
+
+ <p>The goal of the Gentoo IA-64 development project is to guarantee that
+ the IA-64 packages build using Gentoo meta-data are up to date. By
+ continuously enhancing the meta-data, we provide the IA-64 user with the
+ Gentoo community feeling, performance, freedom and up to dateness. The
+ meta-distribution notion allows for a user to to be as bleeding edge as
+ he/she wants:</p>
+
+ <p>Gentoo is unique because of its interpretation of the Meta-Distribution
+ notion: all architectures share the same 'generic' meta-data (information
+ about how to build packages - how to build a distribution). The IA-64
+ developers are responsible for building and testing packages using this
+ meta-data. The meta-data gets marked 'tested' or 'stable' afterwards,
+ depending on the building and testing expierience. Our users can use (but
+ don't have to use) this information to build a system that suits their
+ needs.</p>

+
+ <p>Can you make computers do amazing things? Are you excited about
+ exploring areas of computing never explored before? We are continuously
+ looking for volunteers willing to spend some of their free time on this
+ project. In return for your work, you get the respect of the IA-64
+ community.</p>
+
+ <p>If you are interested in helping, but don't have a niche that you are
+ interested in filling, you can always look through <uri
+ link="http://bugs.gentoo.org">bugs.gentoo.org</uri>. There are many many
+ bugs waiting to be found and fixed and many enhancements looking to find
+ someone to code them. Figure out a fix, implement it, test it, and then
+ keep trying to make the patch smaller. Post it for review on <uri
+ link="http://bugs.gentoo.org">bugs.gentoo.org</uri>, and keep working on
+ it. If it seems ignored, make a new comment in the bug and/or mention it
+ in #gentoo-IA64.</p>
