 Sure. I have CC'ed Riku. But my point is just that the word armel
 appears appears nowhere on the ports page itself. But if it's fine
 with the porters, it's fine with me too.

Maybe we should add armel to the ports page in the same way
mips and mipsel pages are?

 Erm, the informations about the armel port is contained in the arm
page: http://www.debian.org/ports/arm/

 Can you please check with the arm porter team wether your request was
proper and how it should be addressed, or wether you just didn't know
that the infromations are included in the /ports/arm/ pages and that
your bugreport simply can get closed?

 Thanks,
Rhonda

Oops. I think you're right.

Hi!

Please do include a description of armel on the
http://www.debian.org/ports/ page, in lieu of the ARM EABI Port at
the bottom (port-like projects section).

The following could be a possible description:

armel

Runs on a variety of embedded hardware, such as Linksys NSLU2. This
port is the more efficient successor for the arm port, and is
compatible with the ARM EABI.


Thanks!

Kumar
