That's very wrong. For instance I would have added Skylake+ backlight support to coreboot over a year ago if the information wasn't hidden in a secret lair. Not having information published early and conveniently accessible is always of consequence. You might just not know in what ways yet. ;) > I'd also like to see those other required blobs in the > 3rd party blobs repo, but that's an entirely separate issue :) True.
