about="""
NetBSD/sparc64 is a NetBSD port to Sun's 64-bit UltraSPARC machines. The first
binary release for sparc64 was [NetBSD 1.5](http://www.NetBSD.org/releases/formal-1.5/).
NetBSD/sparc64 supports many systems, including Sbus-based UltraSPARC systems
and PCI-based UltraSPARC systems using UltraSPARC I, II, IIi, IIe, III, and IIIi CPU
types.

NetBSD/sparc64 supports both 32-bit and 64-bit kernels. A 32-bit kernel runs
all NetBSD/sparc binaries. A 64-bit kernel runs 64-bit binaries, and has
support for running most 32-bit binaries as well, with the exception of some
low level kernel groveling tools.

Martin Husemann is the maintainer for NetBSD/sparc64.
