2010-07-15 02:19:40 Kip Warner description It would be very nice is Ubuntu was available for mipsel hardware. It is an emerging platform with powerful capabilities and a promising future. We know that building most of the packages of a typical Ubuntu installation is possible for mipsel, given that Ubuntu based distributions like gNewSense do this already - albeit not as elegantly. A good place to start might be by adding a mipsel target to the PPA build farm. It would be very nice if Ubuntu was available for mipsel hardware.

Thus, the future for free hardware necessary for free software likely rests with MIPS.
