  I was thinking: it seems that Linux will have an IA-64 port
ready when Itanium rolls out, as well as Windows, Solaris, etc.

  Is there any effort(or at least, any thought) on making an
IA-64 port of FreeBSD? It seems Intel is trying to push IA-64
to be 'the platform' for servers and workstations, and I think
FreeBSD definitely can't be left out....
