  MIPS on OpenBSD, Brian Callahan 
  
  Everyone knows the BSDs provide a stable, feature-rich Operating System 
  for the big name and "in the news" CPUs. What you may not know is that 
  you can expect an equally excellent experience on the lesser-known CPUs. 
  
  This talk will provide an in-depth look at the Loongson CPU, a mips64el 
  CPU, on OpenBSD. We'll explore its history on OpenBSD and its support 
  for third-party software through OpenBSD's excellent ports system. We'll 
  examine the unique challenges that come with ports and packages on 
  lesser-used CPUs. Finally, we'll discuss the future of MIPS support, 
  including embedded MIPS. 
  
  About the speaker: 
  
  Brian is a graduate student at Monmouth University studying 
  Anthropology. He is an OpenBSD developer, working primarily on mips64el 
  (Loongson) ports.
