This is a *personal* opinion, not supported by anyone else I suppose, but:
I don't think it's unreasonable to ask that people send in board status 2 times a year.
That's it. It makes it easier for potential users, and for people maintaining the tree.
Sound ok?
Twice a year sounds ok. I still think this should be tied to release cycle, which IMO is not clear at this point. If release cycle would be similar to Linux then I would imagine status update should be sent at
- -rcX stage and then after stable release.
Removing boards from the master branch happened right after releases before. coreboot releases are not "stable" btw. more reference points.
Related: coreboot desperately needs a release manager. We had a 6 month release cycle, IIRC. I guess the last has been due in April, but nobody talked about it yet. Neither have we published the release notes of the 4.7 release [1], afaics.
