If there is enough interest and support, I would like to pitch in. Many embedded systems now are based on MIPS R4k and R7k CPU systems. I have worked on some inhouse cooked up OSs. They seem to run out of steam and did not scale well over a period of time. I would like to learn freeBSD and possibly help in porting it onto MIPS based CPU systems. I have a decent knowledge of BSD mbuf implementation and how it is used with IP stack and thats about it.
