This is a *personal* opinion, not supported by anyone else I suppose, but: I don't think it's unreasonable to ask that people send in board status 2 times a year. That's it. It makes it easier for potential users, and for people maintaining the tree. Sound ok? ron -- coreboot mailing list:

Hello, to say it one more time: It was never intended to remove boards from coreboot. All that was discussed is to stop pretending that things work (that don't) and instead keep them on branches where it's easier to keep them working (if somebody has interest). If that will happen again, it will

Hello coreboot folks, hello Intel and Google coreboot developers, back on Tuesday, some of us discovered a commit on gerrit [1] that implements (another) foreign interface inside coreboot. Discussing it didn't go well and I kind of bursted. I feel sorry about that now (especially because I got

There are a lot of nice AMD-based coreboot-supported boards which have an outdated board_status and are at risk of removal. The majority of these boards (with the exception of PC engines apu2//3//4//5) - do not require a closed source AMD PSP binary to run, and ( also compared to many Intel boards
