The above takes minutes to master, not years.
I've already 'mastered' mercurial, so I don't think git would give me too many problems. I was under the impression that it required knowing your way around the codebase, but I'm glad that's not the case. The time-issues still remain, although I might be able to solve those too before the end of this month.
That would be good, please [..] each case.)
The broken links I encountered were external links, so I don't think it can be fixed permanently. All links under 'AMD' on this page[1] are broken for example. It can be fixed by replacing 'Processor' with 'Embedded', but I don't think there is a permanent solution for this case. I don't remember the other broken links I encountered, but I will fix them as soon as I do.

Will do, thanks!

I don't think I really qualify yet:
Prior to project acceptance, you have demonstrated that you can work with the coreboot codebase.
This is a best-case, not a worst-case, requirement.
This merely means that you must be able to use git and push commits into Gerrit and have written useful commit messages and not have millions of unrelated whitespace changes in a coherent single-logical-change-in-every-commit manner.
But both issues are hopefully resolved in 2014.

PS: I've discovered a few broken links throughout the Coreboot wiki. Maybe I can start participating by fixing them? :-)
That would be good, please email Stefan Reinauer to get an account, but first, what are the links and more importantly why have they broken? I would like it if we can somehoew move away from links that may break again in the future, and reference what should be essentially same information in a different more reliable way. (Sometimes this isn't possible, and we have to live with broken links, but it needs to be looked at for each case.)
