For those who are interested in the p40 project/t2/mips based machine, 
that has  a similiar copy-left agreement to GNU's this is ALL the info I got
but I think this is the best. I did not get a hold of "mka@apricot.x.x.jp" 
yet , but I figure if you are really interested you can contact him yourself.

	If anybody else, in the States, Australia, Europe or wherever, is
working on any similiar projects, like the p40, then please post ny info to the
net. Anyways here's the mail I for from the developer of t2. So enjoy!!

Subject: p40 project in Japan, t2

Hi,

	I'm a member of the p40 project, and I wrote t2. Now the first
version hardware and software are available. About the whole of the p40
project and hardware design details includeing board layouts and PAL lists,
please contact with  mka@apricot.juice.or.jp.

	Now I try to work MIPS-version 386bsd on our board. Emacs and
gcc work already, but gdb not yet. The first version of the ethernet
driver (we use Am7990 Lance) is in test. It seems to me that this kernel
isn't stable yet. I'm going to modify t2 also so as to be binary compatible
(in a limited sence) with this "mipsBSD". My target is a complete base
camp for attacking the porting of the GNU Hurd.

	Masashi Kamata (mka@apricot.juice.or.jp) who is the project leader
is now trying to make the MIPS version BNR2SS and we can see the shell
prompt on this system already.

	If you want more imformation, please tell me. My english may be bad
enough to misread something and I can generate the english words very slowly,
but I'll reply as fast as I can do.
