It might be better placed in Documentation, but, much like the MAINTAINERS
file, this would have e-mail/ftp/http/etc addresses of where to get the
changes/additions/information on the various ports to other platforms that
Linux has.

It'd be a nice way of "thumping the chest" to say that we have "such-and-such"
ports working, etc.

That way, it would make it easier for people that are just casually interested
in running Linux can go, "Oh hey, they have ported it to the 8088, I think
I'll try it" :)

Something to think about, might come in handy.. although it might be a hassle
to maintain too.
