Hi, [adding Zlatan into the loop, since we know each other and he works it Purism.]

From what I read, this is going to be a x86_64 platform, so in theory Tails should run on it. I already have a Tails booting on a tablet based on Intel BayTrail, so that new one should at least boot as well. Now, the problems I've had last time I played with Tails on tablets were about drivers: except the touchscreen, basically everything else required drivers or firmware that are not in Linux mainline, so it didn't work without patching the kernel a lot (and the source code for the drivers was not always easy to find, if available at all). So my next questions focus on this topic. Zlatan, will PureOS for this tablet include any additional driver, firmware or kernel patch that's not in Debian, e.g. for touchscreen, sound, backlight, 3G and various sensors? In particular, the section about "Freed Wireless AC Driver" makes me wonder: until that driver is freed, how exactly can one use Wi-Fi with a Librem tablet? And one last question: these devices will be UEFI-enabled, right? I'm interested in the answers for both the Librem 10 and Librem 11 tablets, in case they differ.
