Hi!  At the end of September I got an HP 9000/715, and I grabbed
all of the OpenBSD/hppa code and started working on it.  Michael
Shalayeff, the OpenBSD/hppa port maintainer, has a very good
foundation of code, which has saved me months of time.  Now, after 
a lot of coding myself I'm into single-user mode.  

This is really just a sneak preview - this entire effort is still
in its earliest stages.  The system is not stable.  Many questions 
that you may have, I may not be able to answer (I'm no expert on 
the architecture - but I am learning more every day.)  I don't have 
anything that can be downloaded and generally used yet, on the 715 
or any other machine.  

But things are looking up...

Matt
