<p><b>Note</b>: As of FreeBSD 7.0, support for the Alpha platform will be
removed. The development of new Alpha systems has been discontinued by
the hardware vendor; this combined with the widespread deployment of
more mainstream 64-bit platforms, such as the AMD64 and Intel EM64T
architectures, has resulted in significantly reduced user and developer
community interest. FreeBSD/alpha support will continue in maintenance
mode for future FreeBSD 6.x releases.</p>
