Changes to this file should not be MFCed.
+xxxx:
+ FreeBSD 15.0 will not include support for 32-bit platforms.
+ However, 64-bit systems will still be able to run older 32-bit
+ binaries.
+
+ Support for executing 32-bit binaries on 64-bit platforms via
+ COMPAT_FREEBSD32 will remain supported for at least the next 10
+ years.
+
+ Support for compiling individual 32-bit applications via `cc
+ -m32` will also be supported for at least the next 5 years
+ which includes suitable headers in /usr/include and libraries
+ in /usr/lib32.
+
+ Support for 32-bit platforms in ports for 15.0 and later
+ releases is also deprecated, and these future releases may not
+ include binary packages for 32-bit platforms or support for
+ building 32-bit applications from ports.
+
+ stable/14 and earlier branches will retain existing 32-bit
+ kernel and world support. Ports will retain existing support for
+ building ports and packages on 32-bit systems on stable/14 and
+ earlier branches as long as those branches are supported by the
+ ports system.
+
+ With the current support schedule, stable/14 will be EOLed 5
+ years after the release of 14.0. The EOL of stable/14 would
+ mark the end of support for 32-bit platforms including source
+ releases, pre-built packages, and support for building
+ applications from ports. Given an estimated release date of
+ October 2023 for 14.0, support for 32-bit platforms would end
+ in October 2028.
