<h3>Introduction</h3>
<p>This page contains information about porting FreeBSD to the
MIPS® platform. Discussion of the MIPS port takes
place on the
<a href="http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mips">freebsd-mips</a>
mailing list.</p>

<h3><a name="status">Status</a></h3>
<p>MIPS is a
<a href="&base;/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/committers-guide/archs.html">
Tier 3</a> architecture, and as such is currently regarded as experimental.
It is not supported by the <a href="&base;">FreeBSD</a> project.</p>

<h4><a name="1">What is the FreeBSD/MIPS project?</a></h4>
<p>FreeBSD/MIPS is a port of the FreeBSD operating system
to platforms based around MIPS processors.</p>
<h4><a name="2">What hardware are you targeting?</a></h4>
<p>At the moment, several MIPS32 development boards and
SGI's MIPS64 computers are being targeted. Other MIPS platforms
such as common embedded boards and non-exotic computers in
a similar configuration are expected
to be targeted later on.</p>
<h4><a name="3">What is the current status?</a></h4>
<p>FreeBSD/MIPS is in the early stages of development, see the
<a href="http://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/mips"> MIPS wiki page</a>
for information
about currently ongoing work.</p>
<h4><a name="4">How can I acquire FreeBSD/MIPS?</a></h4>
<p>FreeBSD/MIPS is being developed in FreeBSD's Perforce repository
but diffs will be occasionally posted to <a href="#list">the mailing
list</a>.</p>
<h4><a name="5">Who should I contact?</a></h4>
<p><a href="mailto:jmallett@FreeBSD.org">Juli Mallett</a> is the project lead.
Contact her if you can contribute code. If you just want
to know about the status of this project, check this page
regularly or
join the <a href="#list">FreeBSD/MIPS mailing list</a>.</p>
