<h3>Status</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>As of FreeBSD 7.0, support for the Alpha platform has been
|
|
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>
