It /looks/ like the chipset vendors are minting new armv7 based low end SoCs?

Ie, targeting all the embedded stuff that doesn't require a web browser. ;-)

I think the pressure right now is "do we really want to keep /any/ 32
bit platforms around?".
If you're using armv7 in products / local devices then please do
consider / continue contributing work
to FreeBSD on them. I /think/ thats what srcmgr@ is looking for.
