Hi Kiran,
We have an ongoing discussion with Ron Minnich and suppliers about support for coreboot. As the motherboard working group gets kicked off (later in Q2) the best path to pursue your agenda is to become a member of the project team and drive coreboot into the standard. The project committee would collectively work together on the decision.
Harry Li is the project lead for the motherboard working group and will be driving the technical workshop at the upcoming summit - if you attend please chat with him about coreboot.
Thanks for your interest in OCP.
John

Kudos OCP experts,
I am resending this mail, since earlier mail is rejected due to size issues.
To make this project true "Open Compute Project", this Coreboot BIOS software on Motherboard is essential.
I request you to consider using Coreboot (www.coreboot.org) as BIOS for Server and Storage motherboards used in Open Compute Project.
Thanks, Kiran. _______________________________________________ Opencompute-all mailing list Opencompute-all@lists.opencompute.org http://lists.opencompute.org/mailman/listinfo/opencompute-all _______________________________________________ Opencompute-virtualio mailing list virtualio@opencompute.org http://lists.opencompute.org/mailman/listinfo/opencompute-virtualio
Hi John,
It is my pleasure to be part of OCP team. I am looking forward to become part of the project team to drive Coreboot into the standard.
I am willing to take up the work effective from now.
Thanks, Kiran Patil.
