+      <p>Since the last status report, support for building &os; for
+	AArch64 (arm64) has been committed to Subversion.  This has
+	initially been targeting qemu, with more hardware support
+	being added after review.</p>
+
+      <p>Support for ACPI, SMP, DTrace, and <tt>hwpmc</tt> has been
+	added.  ACPI is able to enumerate devices and get to the
+	<tt>mountroot</tt> prompt.  Further work is needed to get into
+	userland.  SMP has been tested on qemu with two cores, and
+	work is under way to support SMP on hardware.  The
+	<tt>hwpmc</tt> driver includes support for the Cortex-A53,
+	Cortex-A57, and Cortex-A72 cores from ARM.</p>
+
+      <p>Poudriere has been used with user-mode qemu to test building
+	packages.  Over 14,000 ports were successfully built.  A
+	number of issues have been found and fixed from this first
+	run.  These fixes should unblock about 5,000 additional
+	ports.</p>
