This sounds like a cool thing.  I'll have to take a look at it.  I
asked because I've been trying to coordinate the various disorganized
efforts to get FreeBSD going on mips.  There's a lot of cool mips
embedded systems that FreeBSD would be great for.

Hi Warner.
	MIPS is definitely the way to go!! We been working very close to
Mikrotik in the last 6 years and our software has similar applications but
open source and over Freebsd. If I can put more effect and time on this
project plus have support for MIPS we could get a very unique Embedded
solution on Freebsd

Thanks
