I asked Jason to create this list as some kind of analogue of the
port-m68k list. Should we create another list for that?  ISTR that
last time I discussed this with Jason, he suggestsed using port-mips
for a system-neutral, mips-CPU-based porting list, and using something
*else* (port-mipsco?) for the boxes MipsCo shipped as a system vendor.


But that's not what port-mips seems to convey.  Should we create
another list -- port-mips-cpu, perhaps -- for system-vendor-neutral
mips-CPU discussion?
