Does anyone even have one? Has anyone done a build and burn recently to test? Has anyone volunteered to maintain it? How much does it it impact other code as a special case?
I threw mine out years ago.

to me it seems like the Intel Quark SoC has been unmaintained and unused for a long time now. So I'm proposing to deprecate the support for it with coreboot release 4.17 [1], in order to drop the support with release 4.19 so that the community has less maintenance overhead.
Does anyone use this platform? Any opinions against this?
What Paul wrote; are there some practical concerns beyond the academic concern seemingly based on perceived utility?
Quark is funny and as I understand also the ME CPU, I find those to be two more good reasons not to delete it.

It feels this is the usual "but what if *someone* out there *needs/wants* it?". The last commit with documented boot test was in 2017 (48dbc663d7, correct me if I'm wrong, please). Does anyone know if the platform still works, at all? If not, let's drop it.
