Do you really not understand the spirit of open source and what coreboot is doing since more than 20 years? I guess you do but that you need a reference to something written for some silly higher-ups. :\ > We will also work closely with our other open source Linux graphics > team to see how we can leverage common code for future Silicon. This is a good idea. Maybe libgfxinit could even become the primary codebase at some point. In any case it's just silly to duplicate work at all, including for i915+GOP.
