1. It allows us to put the McKinley die in the upper right corner of the page and thus make it part of the header. This is aesthetically more pleasing. 2. It makes it easier for us to add news entries. Aside for point 1, the page is still the same as the previous index.

The FreeBSD/ia64 project pages contain information about the
|
|
FreeBSD port to Intel's IA-64 architecture; officially known as
|
|
the Intel Itanium® Processor Family (IPF). As with the port
|
|
itself, these pages are still mostly a work in progress.

The ia64 port is still considered a tier 2 platform. This boils
|
|
down to not being fully supported by our security officer, release
|
|
engineers and toolchain maintainers. In practice however the
|
|
distinction between a tier 1 platform (which is fully supported)
|
|
and a tier 2 platform is not as strict as it seems. In almost all
|
|
aspects the ia64 port is a tier 1 platform.
|
|
<br/>
|
|
From a developer point of view there's an advantage to have the ia64
|
|
port be a tier 2 platform for a while longer. We still have a couple
|
|
of ABI breaking changes in the pipeline and having to maintain
|
|
backward compatibility this early in a ports life is less than
|
|
ideal.
