Hi Tomek, Thanks so much! I actually hadn't thought of that, maybe we could ask for help from the foundation. Do you know who's the best point of contact for that?
I know Linux must have received the datasheets to make Raspberry Pi OS. No offence to NuttX, but Linux is pretty popular in comparison. If Broadcom or Raspberry Pi would release us some information that would be an immense help. I suspect there was some kind of deal with the Linux group but I have no idea. I believe even QNX didn't have access to the datasheets and rather just reverse engineered the Linux drivers.
