Interesting discussion! It got me to wondering, having spent a lot of time in the V1, V2, and V3 trees the last few months. Is this statement true? "There is no source so bad that a binary blob is better" If we take that to be true, then what about this: "bad source should never be replaced by a

2019-09-12 Thread Patrick Georgi via coreboot
Hi everybody, coreboot is shipping AMD's open sourced AGESA for a few generations as part of its tree. Some people advocate dropping the code due to its quality and lack of maintenance while others are happy with using the code. So: to help keep this code alive, we'd need maintainers - people
