This adds support for the Microchip PIC32 platform along with the specific variant PIC32MZDA on a PIC32MZDA Starter Kit.

It is redirected to nonexisting "http://wiki.prplfoundation.org//MIPS_documentation" (prplfoundation.org site problem?). The http://wiki.prplfoundation.org/wiki/MIPS_documentation URL works. The "MIPS documentation" wiki page contains many documents so can we use more accurate URL, e.g. http://wiki.prplfoundation.org/wiki/MIPS_documentation#Unified_Hosting_Interface ? Can we use more strict name for "MIPS UHI specification", e.g. "Unified Hosting Interface Reference Manual (MD01069)"?
I agree. I will reference the name of the complete specification as suggested, however, it looks like it may be safer to drop the URL. Search does a better job here.
