(title
(en "New supported platform: powerpc64le-linux"))
(body
(en "A new platform, powerpc64le-linux, has been added for
little-endian 64-bit Power ISA processors using the Linux-Libre kernel. This
includes POWER9 systems such as the
@uref{https://www.fsf.org/news/talos-ii-mainboard-and-talos-ii-lite-mainboard-now-fsf-certified-to-respect-your-freedom,
RYF Talos II mainboard}. This platform is available as a \"technology
preview\": although it is supported, substitutes are not yet available from
the build farm, and some packages may fail to build. In addition, Guix System
is not yet available on this platform. That said, the Guix community is
actively working on improving this support, and now is a great time to try it
and get involved!")))
