First of all, the needs-build queue is almost empty on mipsel (and was on mips till we lost the hard disk on mayr). Also, we have new and faster machines. As of writing this I'm compiling a kernel which will hopefully help us with seeing why we get our new mips machines dead with 8 hours of compiling packages. For the mipsel machines, there is a new kernel with http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2010-03/txt23iVvbmCyX.txt since yesterday night. I hope to have time this week to try if I can still break the hardware. If we resolve mips or mipsel, we will have enough ressources to fix both architectures (because our current machines could run either flavour). I have the hope that we're not too far away from that. Of course, if we notice that we won't get new hardware anymore, and architecture is starting to die. But that's not true for mips and mipsel as of now.
