it is already done separately by FSF supporters who use GPLv3 for it and FSF is too involved in such development for it to be ignored without sabotaging the development thus why i am raising this issue here. So the time for FSF to pitch in is now and FSF's endorsement has a major impact on free hardware development. + from my talks with other FSF supporters and BoD members it seems that majority supports it.

fact. Or try to convince other fsf officials or the general membership. However I don't see the end result being a flood of great Free Hardware. The Respect Your Freedom campaign hasn't suddenly transformed the few participating laptop/workstation/server vendors to industry juggernauts. Any Free Hardware site is going to have even less end-user products. I'm not saying the end goal is bad. I would like to see more Free Hardware but FSF isn't going to do development of Free Hardware.
