I am very happy to announce that the Crochet project has officially =
moved from my
personal account to the FreeBSD project account on github.  It can now =
be found at:

   https://github.com/freebsd/crochet =
<https://github.com/freebsd/crochet>;

In particular, this means that a larger group of freebsd developers are =
now participating
in ongoing Crochet development.

Practically speaking, github will redirect old URLs to the new location =
and the move
should be transparent to existing Crochet users and contributors.

For those unfamiliar, Crochet is a tool for generating runnable system =
images of
FreeBSD.  It was originally developed in mid-2012 for building =
BeagleBone images and
has since expanded with support for many other ARM boards, as well as =
Generic i386
and VMWare images.  It is similar in many respects to nanobsd, but has =
more of a
focus on cross-building and supporting a variety of boot systems.  =
(Although I don=E2=80=99t
recommend it as a regular practice, I have confirmed that Crochet can =
cross-build
runnable VMWare i386 images from a BeagleBone. ;-)

Best to all,

Tim
