We asked maintainers to examine the project:

Hi,

The following project was submitted to Savannah. It needs evaluation
to become a GNU package, can you give it a look, please ?

Submitter: <address@hidden>
Project Full Name:  Hurd on Mach on PowerPC
Project System Name:  hurdppc
License:  other
Approval URL:
https://savannah.gnu.org/admin/groupedit.php?group_id=4685
Description: To port the oskit to PowerPC architectures. Then adapt
the OFS's 
Mach implementation to run with the ported oskit, includying the Linux
drivers 
for modern ppc hardware. Then, run the hurd on modern ppc machines (as 
macintosh ones).

The homepage of the project is on:
http://es.gnu.org/~jemarch/ppc-oskit

There is not sources for now (apart the unported oskit and osfmk
sources).

It seems nobody from the maintainers team contacted Jose.  I'm sorry
but I can't give you any more information about that.

I think Mathieu can give you more information if he informed Jose that
he forwarded his request to maintainers.   I couldn't find a message
in the archive about that.
