hi,

does anybody know anything about mariposa
(http://s2k-ftp.cs.berkeley.edu:8000/mariposa/index.html)?
why did they stop the project?
is there anywhere an intel compatible version?
i'm interested in such a system and thinking about developing something
like this.

thanks,
 moritz

I've heard at least one grad student who was there mutter that it
never worked :-(.  That's not to say that the ideas couldn't be
useful...

It seems to be commercialized by Cohera Corp.

Cohera is dead.  They changed their mission
from mariposa to other things long before they
kicked the bucket.  The remainders were picked
up by peoplesoft.

If you really want mariposa, you'll have to pick
it up from the university code if it is available
and go from there to make it work.
