This page lists various developer hardware needs. If you are interested in supporting the FreeBSD Project, you might consider donating some piece of hardware on this list to the Project.
We provide the FreeBSD username of the developer who needs a resource, the country they are in (for shipping purposes), the equipment they desire, and the use to which that equipment will be put.
For information on tax deductions and process, please see the information on the main FreeBSD Donation Liason office page.
If you would like to donate something on this list, please contact donations@FreeBSD.org.
On a general note, we need a variety of Sparc 64 machines for testing and improving our new Sparc port. Even small, old (or new!) Sparc 64 machines are perfectly usable. No matter which country you're in, we almost certainly have someone local who could use it. We could specifically use 1U rack-mounted Sparcs (such as E220R, E420R, Fire V100, Fire V120, or Netra T1 AC200) for our development and package-building clusters in the USA.
Developer ID | Developer Country | Equipment Desired | Equipment Use |

matusita | Japan | 2-3 build machines:Pentium4 2GHz+,20GB+ ATA66+ HDD,256MB+RAM, 100base-TX NIC,serial, etc. | rebuild dying snapshots.jp.FreeBSD.org |
matusita | Japan | FTP server:Pentium3/Celeron 1GHz+,10GB+ ATA66+ HDD,100GB+ storage (RAID0+1 desirable),256MB+RAM, 100base-TX NIC,serial, etc. | rebuild dying snapshots.jp.FreeBSD.org |
mike | Canada | POSIX specifications: 1003.1-1990 and 1003.1-1996. | To ensure proper conformance to older standards while implementing newer ones. |
mini | USA (west coast) | multi-processor x86 machine | For work on SMP KSE |
murray | USA | 2Ghz+ Pentium 4 or Athlon, 512MB RAM, 20GB+ space, 100MB NIC | Faster i386 build machine for FreeBSD releases. |
netchild | Germany | Pentium 4, enough RAM (256MB or more, our official port build machine has 1GB) and harddisk space (official port build machine: 5x36GB and 1x18GB), 100MB NIC. No graphic card is needed if the BIOS is accessible from the serial console. Nice to have: some hardware to make backups. | Build and test P4 optimized packages with Intels C/C++ compiler. |
netchild | Germany | A commercial license for the Intel C/C++ compiler for Linux (see Intel's pricelist). | The non-commercial license I have doesn't allows me to make binaries available for download, a commercial license did not have this restriction so I can make icc compiled packages available for download (see also my above entry for a build/test machine). |
