FreeBSD distribution for ARM processors.

Hi,

 

Can someone please explain the rationale behind not providing a distribution
for arm based systems, as it seems somewhat illogical to me that
distributions are available for ia64, powerpc, sparc64 (see
http://www.freebsd.org/where.html) which are considered Tier 2 architectures
while the official reason for arm being a Tier 2 architecture is the fact
that no distribution is provided for it (see
http://www.freebsd.org/platforms/arm.html).

 

Assuming this message ends up on some distribution list please cc me on the
reply since I'm not subscribed to it.

 

Thanks in advance, Jk.
