54: <p>
55: OpenBSD/cats was started based on NetBSD -current code of January 2004.
1.21 deraadt 56: It was used as a reasonably fast foundation to the
1.17 miod 57: <a href="zaurus.html">zaurus</a> port.
58:
59: <p>
60: Once the zaurus port was running well, cats was neglected due to the
1.18 miod 61: (relative) lack of hardware, as well as the deceiving hardware reliability,
62: and was eventually dropped shortly after the inception of the
63: <a href="armish.html">armish</a> port.
