I had those publishing issues fixed some months ago, Factory is publishing
regulary currently.

PowerPC for 12.3 is building in openSUSE:12.3 directly, in the ports repo.

This causes some headaches currently as the "preinstallimages" speedups
for factory cause our workers to die (due to high io load we think, we
never fully debugged it).

Factory is in a good state failure wise, and you should probably test 
from this right now until PPC 12.3 is build through.


I have however not actually tried upgrading or installing.
