+1 Same for me, I would gladly help with the port of coreboot to Talos II (even if I am not a coreboot expert, I do have some background in firmware development..), but there are 2 problems : - the time : I will be able to spend my free time on coreboot development again only after june 2018; - the monies : I have no financial resources right now to pay myself a Talos development platform (4000$ is expensive.. and also I live in Europe and I'm concerned with the shipment of a so large and fragile item from US to Europe) I will attend the coreboot conference in september and like Jonathan said, I'm really interested by a POWER9 session at this conference. Best regards, Florentin Demetrescu

We've been kicking around the idea for some time of getting a coreboot port to the POWER9 Talos II systems going. We don't have the resources available / free at the moment to work on this independently, but it might be possible to get something going if there are other community members interested in helping out.
Count me in, I am getting sick and tired of x86 vendors ;)

Sounds great, glad to have you on board! Any other volunteers?
I am interested, but I can't commit time to this at the moment.
Is there going to be a POWER9 session at the Open Source Firmware Conference[1] in September? I'd be happy to attend.
