Reported by LWN:

As of tonight, there is no more SPARC in testing. The main reasons were lack of porter commitments, problems with the toolchain 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.

    There is no real "article" at this time, the announcement was published on the mailing list/bug tracker. I don't write articles, I just submit stuff that is interesting to me. Sorry for that, but this is just early and raw news/information.
