+ <title>FreeBSD Self-Hosting on the Sun T1 Processor</title>
+
+ <p>FreeBSD is now able to complete a full run of the
+ "make buildworld" command on machines running the <a
+ href="http://www.sun.com/processors/UltraSPARC-T1/">Sun T1 processor
+ with CoolThreads technology</a>, and is thus self-hosting.
+ The code currently resides in the <a
+ href="http://perforce.freebsd.org/branchView.cgi?BRANCH=kmacy%5fsun4v">
+ FreeBSD Perforce revision control system</a> and will be merged to
+ the official CVS repository, once support for logical domaining
+ is complete.</p>
