Subject: [PATCH] docs/about: Deprecate the 'next-cube' m68k machine
Date: Sat, 7 Oct 2023 09:23:13 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231007072313.22108-1-huth@tuxfamily.org> (raw)
The machine is incomplete, and unfortunately the hoped-for improvements
never happened. So it's maybe best if we mark this machine as deprecated
and finally remove it again in case it gets into the way of a code
refactoring or other reasons.
