I've been thinking more and more about returning to a stable flashrom branch lately
I'm missing the "why".
To get back to work. To create something sustainable. As you and many others suggest, I also would like to have a branch that can be kept in a releasable state. First, we need a branch that is in a releasable state.
You may have missed the decisions around the 1.3.x branch. The idea seems to be to clean things up on that release branch and for the time being do nothing about the open issues on the master branch. To me that's yet another sign that the current master branch is at a dead end.
I think I will advise Patrick to create a separate "flashrom-stable" repository that will start out as a copy of the flashrom repository. In this repository you will be able to reboot to flashrom 1.2 and decide what constitutes stability metrics, pace and direction as you see fit.
That's not what I want. I see no need to rush things.
