Hi Everyone, We're coming up on our next coreboot release. We'd like to get the release done around the middle of October, but if there are issues in flight, we can delay it a bit. The release will absolutely happen before end of the month.
If anyone is working on major changes that will affect all of coreboot, I'd request that they hold off until after the release so we have time to stabilize before the release.
Please test platforms that you're interested in now, and as we get closer to the release. I'll create a list of validated platforms to include in the release notes, so if you want your favorite platform listed as having been tested in the release notes, please test it now, and post it to the board_status tracker. I'll release updated documentation for running board_status in the next few days.
We've got a number of outstanding issues right now, both on the coreboot issue tracker, and in coverity. Please take a moment to look over these issues and if there are any in an area that you think you can fix, please take a swing at them.
