If someone wanted to work with one of the approved coreboot contractors or individual contributor to set up a fundraiser of some sort to raise money to do things like this, that'd be great.
We've had a requests for things like this in the past, but it's not something that the coreboot project itself can really do. We don't want to pit one group of coreboot developers against another, and the coreboot project also doesn't deliver binaries or sign contracts for work, so coreboot can't make guarantees about deliverables. I'd be happy to help get a fundraiser set up if anyone is interested in doing the work, but it's going to have to go through an actual fundraising site, and of course we'd want to have a full written plan before starting anything.
