instructions on how to compile the compiler for it and other ARM-based boards.

A pull request may be the formal way to contribute, but this seems to me much more complicated than necessary. And (as far as I understand the process) it requires time and effort of someone else to merge the additions into the repository. In Jallib all contributors were always 'peers', no hierarchy. Why not take the responsibility and simply add the files to the repository like we have done for so many years? Nothing happens to the packaging as long as these files are not added to TORELEASE, and since you have most likely tested your contributions you may as well add these to TORELEASE.

Another disadvantage of this 'indirect' way of contributing is that the additions don't show up when browsing Github. At least I cannot find 'm, but that may be caused by my short-sightedness ;-)
