I talked with Devrim during last pgconf.eu about the opportunity to have IBM
providing a POWER server and even some feedback about their gcc toolkit,
optimized for POWER7 and POWER8.

I had no answers to my mails since then, when trying to get people from IBM in
touch with Devrim :(

Devrim, maybe my emails landed in your spam ? Or did I miss something ?
