== ARM Processors ==
ARM chips are the most popular CPU produced -- in excess of 5 billion are being made each year. These are being sold under a number of different brand <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.thepiggybackrider.com/ <span style="color:black;font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none!important; background:none!important; text-decoration:none;/*CITATION*/">child carrier</span>]</span> names (ARM, StrongARM, Armada, Cortex, OMAP, Sheeva, Snapdragon, XScale) by a number of different manufacturers. Most of these are going into cellphones, but hundreds of millions are being used in other devices such as routers, NAS boxes, embedded controllers, tablets, and netbooks.
The [http://www.laptop.org One Laptop Per Child] (OLPC) computers, model XO-1.75, use an ARM processor. Since Fedora is used on the XO units, having a reliable ARM build of Fedora is increasingly important.
* Currently building F13 under the supervision of [[User:Paul.W|Paul Whalen]] and [[User:Chris Tyler|Chris Tyler]].
* See the [[Fedora ARM Secondary Architecture/ARM hardware|ARM Hardware]] page for details of the build farm hardware.
