From what I have been able to find out, somebody in Australia was working
with somebody in Denmark on the FreeBsd  port to MCA machines. I have the
impression that this is still in progress.

Can somebody else confirm if work on FreeBsd for MCA has indeed stopped?

Thanks for all the responses.

Rohit.
