  <p>This page contains information about the FreeBSD port to Sun Microsystem's
 | 
						|
    UltraSPARC® architecture.  UltraSPARC is a
 | 
						|
    <a href="&base;/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/committers-guide/archs.html">
 | 
						|
    Tier 1</a> architecture, and as such is fully supported by the
 | 
						|
    <a href="&base;">FreeBSD</a> project.  However, the port
 | 
						|
    is not as mature as the existing i386 or alpha ports.  Discussion of the
 | 
						|
    UltraSPARC port takes place on the
 | 
						|
    <a href="http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-sparc64">freebsd-sparc</a>
 | 
						|
    mailing list.</p>
