I recommend using the request form at OSUOSL to ask for instances: http://osuosl.org/services/powerdev/request_hosting The general information is here, for reference, which says POWER8 is available now: http://osuosl.org/services/powerdev They also have their own irc channel (#osuosl on Freenode) if you want to ask questions there. I've had a very minimal LPAR for the builfarm and I am imagining that not a huge amount of resources are required for building the RPMs so I'm hoping it would be easy to get access.
