[talk] Fwd: freebsd/Crochet

[Mike Nichols]

Wow, awesome. i haven't had a chance to play with this yet, as i only heard about it last week. Cant wait to see where this goes, and try it out on a few different platforms i have -- including one that is exynos (arm64).

Anyone put together images for these?
