"aarch64" is the new 64-bit ARMv8, I had to Google that name. There are various other minor and not so minor platforms like Power, Mips, OpenSparc, etc.

It's not exactly new though, it first shipped in the iPhone 5S a bit more than 2 years ago. > There are various other minor and not so minor platforms like Power, Mips, OpenSparc, etc. Which is exactly the platforms the author (Miod Valaat, who recently resigned as OpenBSD nurturer/implementer/maintainer for many of these) is talking about considering he explicitly lists them in the first paragraph: > Only a few people actually know about the rest of the ecosystem (mips, power8...), and noone gives a shit anyway.
