[ncl-talk] Fwd: POWER8 (ppc64le) Configuration

[James Ostrander]

Hi all, I haven't yet received a response from ncl-install -- Are there any
maintainers that would be willing to accept new linux/ppc64le configuration
options (and other minor build system improvements) as a patch?

Hi, I'm interested in helping push forward NCL's ppc64le compatibility - I
noticed there is not yet an options file for that build type in the source
code, so creating one would be the logical place to start.

Rather than hashing out the necessary configuration details myself, I would
first like to try to create a bounty to incentivize work from a different
developer through bountysource.com. To go this route, I would need to link
to a public issue. Is there such a place I can post an issue for this
project? If not, would it be okay to fork the project and have the changes
worked on there?

Would the NCL maintainers be likely to accept the new configuration options
as a patch after they've been completed?
