+ <p>The collaborative development on the &os; arm64 port
+ made significant progress over the last quarter. The &os;
+ Foundation is collaborating with ARM, Cavium, the Semihalf team,
+ and Andrew Turner to port &os; to the arm64 architecture,
+ also known as ARMv8 and AArch64.</p>
+
+ <p>After significant review and refinement, the initial set
+ of changes are being delivered into &os;-HEAD. This initial
+ support targets the QEMU and ARM Foundation Model emulators, and
+ boots to a usable multiuser environment.</p>
+
+ <p>Cavium's ThunderX platform is the initial hardware
+ reference target for the &os; arm64 port. The platform
+ currently boots to multiuser, with a root file system mounted
+ over NFS via a PCIe 10 Gbps Ethernet NIC. Reference hardware is
+ installed in the &os; test lab hosted by Sentex Communications
+ and in Semihalf's offices.</p>
