63: <p>
64: OpenBSD/cats was started based on NetBSD -current code of January 2004.
1.21 deraadt 65: It was used as a reasonably fast foundation to the
1.17 miod 66: <a href="zaurus.html">zaurus</a> port.
67:
68: <p>
69: Once the zaurus port was running well, cats was neglected due to the
1.18 miod 70: (relative) lack of hardware, as well as the deceiving hardware reliability,
71: and was eventually dropped shortly after the inception of the
72: <a href="armish.html">armish</a> port.
