    • Appears to run any OS, may support UEFI

    • Carl is running a hackathon (in Austin TX) for the BPF3 for other people to be able to use

    • Concerning that there is little to no source code available with license information, and a lot of binary blobs

  • Debian

    •  Trixie is currently broken for all of the arches, but RISC-V especially

  • Android (AOSP)

    • Now shipping an ndk, not guaranteed to be the same as final release, subset of features that will be in future hardware.  Want people to start testing with it

  • oreboot

  • RISC-V

    • Banana Pi F3 Status

      • Getting ready to ship out 10 4gb boards

      • 50/50% interest from distros, most disinterest due to memory limitations

    • Pioneer Box Status

      • Seemingly good news, response that they are shipping

      • Requested tracking information but haven’t received yet


What’s cool?:
