+
+The project to port FreeBSD over to the Pinephone Pro is progressing.
+The aim of this project is to step by step support components of the Pinephone Pro in FreeBSD so that the device one day might be usable as a highly mobile FreeBSD device.
+
+In this quarter, a new development release has been made available for flashing and testing on a PinePhone Pro.
+It includes a newly added touch driver, and a minimal desktop environment with an on-screen keyboard.
+You can simply flash this build to an SD card and boot it up, provided you have the correct version of U-boot bootloader installed (details at the repository).
+The image also contains the kernel and drivers source code, along with package:editors/vim[] editor and build tools, allowing for development of drivers on-device.
+
+To facilitate testing and driver development, network access has been enabled via the headphone jack (using the headphone-to-USB-serial adapter).
+It works by using Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) to access the network via your PC.
+Details of setting this up are in the repository README file.
+
+Work is now under way to develop USB and WiFi drivers.
+As always, contributions in the form of testing, feedback, upstreaming, driver development, or just words of encouragement are welcome.
+
