I'm a few days behind. Here's some reviews:

https://reviews.freebsd.org/D32851 Remove from universe
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D32852 Document that 13.x is the last mips
release
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D32853 Add warning to mips buildworlds that
it's being removed

Please take a look and let me know what you think.

Warner
