Hi Nate,
We still support the older FSP 1.x platforms, so the 1.x FSP binaries are still very useful to us, so we would appreciate it if you did NOT make this change. Coreboot still has a maintenance branch off of the 4.11 release for ongoing support of FSP 1.x platforms, and such a change would break the builds from this branch.
Thanks,
- Jay

Hi Everyone,
Given that the newest coreboot releases have not supported the FSP 1.x specification for years now, seems that the 1.x FSP binaries at https://github.com/intel/FSP have become increasingly limited in their usefulness. For this reason, I would like to move those older binaries off master branch and create a new “legacy” branch to store them. I'll be sure to mention the legacy branch in the readme.md file in master. Any concerns with this change?
Thanks, Nate
