    other than the canonical routerstation pro in the meta-yocto-bsp
layer, is there any serious work being put into MIPS machines?  a
quick google didn't seem to find anything, and the rs pro itself was
end-of-lifed a while back (as i recall), so is there something else if
one wants to use yocto on a MIPS dev kit?

From: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2444

MIPS suggested refresh: http://www.ubnt.com/edgemax

.. but I've yet to complete the due diligence on seeing if I can
actually purchase one :) That's going to happen shortly after yocto
1.4 completes.

   one final addition to the picture, the ERlite 3 seem to have some
real horsepower, according to the specs:

   http://www.ubnt.com/edgemax#EdgeMAXhardware

* (Layer-3 base forwarding) 1,000,000 pps for 64-byte packets. Line
rate (3 Gbps) across all three ports for 512-byte packets and higher

* Dual-core MIPS64 processor with hardware acceleration for packet
processing and encryption/decryption

* 3 RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports

* 512 MB DDR2 RAM

* 2 GB onboard flash storage

* 1 RJ-45 serial console port

   the full datasheet:

http://www.ubnt.com/downloads/datasheets/edgemax/EdgeRouter_Lite_DS.pdf

at $159 (CAD) which includes shipping, that strikes me as eminently
affordable.

Indeed. And thanks for digging into this more, that's the leg work that
I was starting for 1.5, and now it is largely done. Having a new h/w
reference for MIPS has been near the top of the list for some time.
