Re: [Gnewsense-dev] Orchid(mipsel-port) milestone

[Arthur Webkid]

Hi Avr

May I ask what is the different between your Orchid project from that of
"GNewSenseToMIPS"? I am confused as I see both projects aim to port
gNewSense to the MIPS platform of free software only computers from
Lemote.

Thanks.
