I saw on the PowerPC news letter quite a while ago, maybe even as long
as a year ago that some Japanese componay (my memory is suffering from
bit-rot; I seem to remember something like Cannon) has a PowerPC
machine, and has ported FreeBSD to it.  

I may well be wrong.  It has been quite a while.  

Incidentally, are you part of a serious effort at porting FreeBSD to
PowerPC platform(s)?  Which one(s)?  And how far along is the effort?  

Thanks for your time. :)
