alt="Project Goal">
<p class="main">The FreeBSD/MIPS Project aims to port FreeBSD to
MIPS R4000 and newer processors, with support for both desktop
platforms (e.g. SGI MIPS) and embedded systems. The ideal is for
it to be as clean of a port as possible, with as few historical
mistakes as are required, and to provide ports to major platforms
where it makes sense for FreeBSD to maintain them, while providing
a good "working base" for any third-party vendors to build their
own platforms on top of FreeBSD/MIPS.</p>
<img src="&imagebase;/project_plan.png" width="229" height="36"
alt="Project Plan">
<p class="main">Initially, development is being done in the FreeBSD
Perforce repository, but once the port has reached a relatively
working state, it will be merged into the FreeBSD CURRENT branch.
Changes made which are not MIPS specific but which are required
for the port should be merged in gradually over time.</p>
<p class="main">The FreeBSD/MIPS Project is responsible for the
maintenance and development of FreeBSD on platforms using MIPS
processors. The port currently runs multi-user on a number of
platforms and a wide variety of processors.</p>
<img src="&imagebase;/how_to_contribute.png" width="229" height="36"
alt="How to Contribute">
<p class="main">The project is always looking for additional contributors. If you
wish to participate, the best way to find out what is happening
is to subscribe to the <a href="#mailinglist">freebsd-mips
mailing list</a>. If you are working on a specific task
relating to the project, you should contact
<a href="mailto:jmallett@FreeBSD.org">jmallett@FreeBSD.org</a> with a
description of the task so that your task can be listed
below.</p>
<p class="main">If you have code that you are interested in comitting,
you can send it for review to the <a href="#mailinglist">freebsd-mips
mailing list</a>.</p>
