History:

+This project was started in one of those days when the only +open source operating systems for HP PA-RISC computers were +Lites and +MkLinux. +These two sources were a major supply of information and +code for initial development of the OpenBSD/hppa port. +The HPBSD +is encumbered by HP proprietary code and USL licensing and is +not publicly available. +One of the major direct benefits from previous porting efforts +(besides the code, of course ;) is +support for HP PA-RISC in GCC and binutils, which allowed quick +build of cross-tools environment for development. +

+Later on HP decided to sponsor a +Linux port to PA-RISC +machines which actually resulted in some proprietory documentaion +release, even they target different class of 9000 machines. +

+So far here is a history of OpenBSD/hppa port +(it has no dates, but use +cvs to see what happened when):
