1.38      mickey     55: This project was started in one of those days when the only
                     56: open source operating systems for HP PA-RISC computers were
                     57: <a href=http://www.cs.utah.edu/projects/flux/lites/html>Lites</a> and
                     58: <a href=http://www.osf.org/mall/os/pa-mklinux>MkLinux</a>.
                     59: These two sources were a major supply of information and
                     60: code for initial development of the OpenBSD/hppa port.
                     61: The <a href=http://www.cs.utah.edu/~mike/hpbsd/hpbsd.html>HPBSD</a>
                     62: is encumbered by HP proprietary code and USL licensing and is
                     63: not publicly available.
                     64: One of the major direct benefits from previous porting efforts
                     65: (besides the code, of course ;) is
                     66: support for HP PA-RISC in GCC and binutils, which allowed quick
                     67: build of cross-tools environment for development.
                     68: <p>
                     69: Later on HP decided to sponsor a
                     70: <a href=http://thepuffingroup.com/parisc/>Linux</a> port to PA-RISC
1.44    ! jufi       71: machines which actually resulted in some proprietary documentaion
1.38      mickey     72: release, even they target different class of 9000 machines.
