58:
59: <p>
60: OpenBSD/cats was started based on NetBSD -current code of January 2004.
1.21 deraadt 61: It was used as a reasonably fast foundation to the
1.17 miod 62: <a href="zaurus.html">zaurus</a> port.
63:
64: <p>
65: Once the zaurus port was running well, cats was neglected due to the
1.18 miod 66: (relative) lack of hardware, as well as the deceiving hardware reliability,
67: and was eventually dropped shortly after the inception of the
68: <a href="armish.html">armish</a> port.
