+      <p>This project is aimed at adding &os; support for
+	Ralink/Mediatek's family of WiFi router system-on-chip (SoC)
+	devices, based on MIPS processors.  These SoCs are commonly found
+	in embedded network devices such as WiFi routers.  Having support
+	for these SoCs would allow &os; to run on a number of additional
+	low-cost devices, which could help spread &os;'s popularity in the
+	embedded systems world.</p>
+
+      <p>The project currently aims to support the following
+	Ralink/Mediatek chipsets: RT3050, RT3052, RT3350, RT3352, RT3662,
+	RT3883, RT5350, RT6855, RT6856, MT7620, MT7621, MT7628 and MT7688.
+	The following functionality (where applicable) is currently
+	planned to be supported: Interrupt controller, UART, GPIO, USB,
+	PCI/PCIe, Ethernet, and SPI.</p>
