I agree. IMO there are only very few RYF-worthy ARM devices--and we should support at least those, if we support any ARM devices at all. That includes providing images for those few (at least A20-EOMA68, A?0*Olinuxino*, and Novena). (Now that we use genimage in order to create guix images anyway, long term we can also provide an importer and import essentially all ARM devices from buildroot--but that can come later)
