-		<p>The ia64 port is still considered a tier 2 platform. This boils
-		  down to not being fully supported by our security officer, release
-		  engineers and toolchain maintainers. In practice however the
-		  distinction between a tier 1 platform (which is fully supported)
-		  and a tier 2 platform is not as strict as it seems. In almost all
-		  aspects the ia64 port is a tier 1 platform.
-		  <br/>
-		  From a developer point of view there's an advantage to have the ia64
-		  port be a tier 2 platform for a while longer. We still have a couple
-		  of ABI breaking changes in the pipeline and having to maintain
-		  backward compatibility this early in a ports life is less than
-		  ideal.</p>
+		<p>The ia64 port is considered a tier 2 platform until
+		  FreeBSD 10.  After this it will no longer be
+		  supported.</p>
