The o32, n32 and n64 are different ports for Debian and Ubuntu. Debian
mips n32 porting is under early development stage and is far from
finish.

Loongson is just a kind of mips processors. We should take this project
as ubuntu-mips not ubuntu-loongson. I think the name, ubuntu-mips is
much more suitable, and it should be accepted easier by others. After
all, our contribution is to mips, not just to loongson processors.
I have registered a new project ubuntu-mips and added all the old
ubuntu-loongson members to the new one. Shall we all work on the new
project?
