even if the board wasn't supported yet: Thanks to the complete open- source code for Sandy/Ivy Bridge and best coreboot code quality, it usually takes about 1 day for a lucky expert to port one of these boards. 1 or 2 weeks for an unlucky one.
Do you mean an expert as in someone who is a decent programmer without coreboot experience (ex: type of person that asks if board X is supported) or an expert as in someone like timothy pearson or kyosti malkki firmware extraordinaires?
It might not be your intention, but you are spreading a lot of FUD against coreboot.
It is what I was told by a few people, and what I saw here. https://www.coreboot.org/Developer_Manual#How_to_support_a_new_board "This can take from an hour of time to a few months based upon your coding skills and hardware issues." Maybe you should update that page?
