An earlier port to the MVME147 by Chuck Cranor based on Paul Mackerras' old DA30 code (and using hardware donated by Jonathan Levine at Theo's request) provided a solid development platform. Bizzarely, Dale Rahn of Motorola also independently wrote a -port to the MVME147. Both their ports have since been superceded by -new code written by Theo based on the hp300 code.

+port to the MVME147. For most kernel parts, both their ports were +analysed but more code was written new by Theo, or based on the hp300 +code. Dale helped significantly during the porting to the 68040 +models and wrote most of the code specific to the MVME167 model. +Steve Murphee continued work and made the MVME177 work, as well as +adding support for some VME devices.

The people working the most on OpenBSD/mvme68k currently consists of Steve Murphee, Theo de Raadt, and Dale Rahn. Of course, others are very welcome! -
