btw i didn't hear from anyone about the offer to send out
pre-production cards.
I'm tempted but I have nothing to bring to the Linux effort; zero
experience hacking or installing the kernel and not much time to learn.
I'm probably not the kind of person to bring much to the table, either,
but
what kind of equipment would one need to actually attempt anything with
such a
card at this point?
a standard 12v dc power supply with a 5.5mm pin-positive jack,
usb-otg and micro hdmi cables, and a vga monitor.
the main thing i need from people before i send them $300 to $350
worth of equipment is a 100% committment that they'll be doing active
development of some kind which helps the other backers directly or
indirectly, or helps further the goals of the eoma68 project.
u-boot development, kernel development, os preparation, packaging,
upstreaming - anything like that.

I'd be happy to put work into os prep, packaging (desktop environment - I
package up Trininty for my ARM devices here) and anything else that might be
helpful. I can't add my name to the list, I'm not registered.
added. i *really* like trinity desktop as it's amazingly lightweight
and highly functional. i may actually put it as the default instead
of xfce.
i have it installed and tested on one of the microsd cards, it works
really well: if you could test it out to make sure it's functional
that would be _really_ handy.
btw if you've not got a server where you can upload packages as a
repo i'm sure one can be found somewhere.
I have server capability to host packages.
I'm a big fan of trinity too, behaves really well on the ARM devices
I've used.
