(Before I go too far, I am presuming the above means "mips32 binaries from the src tree".) So here is a relevant question about mips. In a discussion about building packages for more varieties of powerpc, Philip Paeps has advised both myself and Piotr Kubaj that we are banging up against the limits of what our mirrors can handle. It looks as though we are still publishing the following: FreeBSD:11:mips (only quarterly is updated) FreeBSD:12:mips (only quarterly is updated) FreeBSD:13:mips (source: https://pkg.freebsd.org/) Given the lack of src binaries, and the poor state of mips* binaries on both 32 and 64, I speculate that all of our mips32 users are building their own bits. If this is the case, I would like to make the motion that we remove mips32 package bits from the mirrors, so that we can instead start publishing binaries for: FreeBSD:13:powerpc64le FreeBSD:14:riscv64 which IMVVHO are "tier-1 aspirational".
