Reported by LWN:

As of tonight, there is no more SPARC in testing. The main reasons were lack of porter commitments, problems with the tool chain and continued stability issues with our machines.

The fate of SPARC in unstable has not been decided yet. It might get removed unless people commit to working on it. Discussion about this should take place on #745938 [debian.org].

I can still remember using my first SPARCstation station. They were only supplied to our lecturers and we would use them any chance we could. Anyone else going to miss this venerable architecture?
