+      <p>The &os; emulation team has done extensive work on polishing
+	&os;'s Linux emulation layer.  After more than a year and a
+	half, Dmitry Chagin's changes to the Linux binary emulation
+	layer were merged into &os; 11.0-CURRENT.  Before merging the
+	more than 115 individual changes into <tt>base/head</tt>, Ed
+	Maste and Edward Tomasz Napierala were able to help by
+	reviewing and improving the code quality.</p>
+
+      <p>Work has begun on backporting these changes into &os;
+	10-STABLE, with the current 10.2 release cycle in mind.  We
+	hope to have that backport ready before 10.2-PRERELEASE turns
+	into 10.2-RELEASE.</p>
+
+      <p>In that same vein, Allan Jude was able to upload and improve
+	a recent Differential Revision that will eventually lead to
+	our having both 32-bit and 64-bit ports for CentOS 6.  Port
+	review activity started during the BSDCan conference's
+	developer summit, and will be continued extensively during the
+	Cambridge Developer Summit.</p>
+
+      <p>We are currently expecting to have both Fedora 10, Centos 6
+	32-bit- and CentOS 6 64-bit-compatible frameworks available by
+	Q4/2015.</p>
+
+      <p>Call for Help: Contributing</p>
+
+      <p>People can contribute to the Emulation team's efforts by
+	testing the CentOS 64-bit changes on a &os; 11.0-CURRENT
+	system. Please use Bugzilla to report any bugs or oddities
+	encountered.</p>
+
+      <p>For the ambitious: we are planning to start working on a
+	CentOS 7 framework.  CentOS7 is 64-bit only, uses a newer
+	kernel, and has <tt>systemd</tt>, so this work is highly
+	experimental.  We hope to have a usable port by Q2/2016.</p>
