I tried to send this to the list but it seems the mailer/webmail had a problem. It is a follow-up on Poul-Henning'sprivate response (I think I had your first name wrong last time, sorry ;-) ) > >I read with much interest your report "FreeBSD's embedded > >agenda" and had a question: did you come to any consensus > >as to which MIPS platform should be used for an initial port? > > Not that I've heard off, but I may not be the best informed > person. Anyone knows of a project where manpower (evening/WE, not full-time) may be needed to raise FreeBSD on a MIPS processor/controller for a first implementation? I would have some spare time for this after July. FPGA design may be involved as I have also experience in this arena: I designed buses like PCI or AMBA. I am based in Chile. Anyone interested, let me know. Cheers Olivier -- Olivier Gautherot olivier@gautherot.net Tel: +56 8 730 9361 Skype: ogautherot
