Success report for the board enable for iBase MB899 http://www.flashrom.org/pipermail/flashrom/2010-April/002953.html
Success report for GIGABYTE GA-MA74GM-S2H http://www.flashrom.org/pipermail/flashrom/2010-February/002160.html
Annotate listing for boards marked broken. If you have any URLs for failure reports which I didn't find, please tell me.
To be honest, I'd love to simply remove all "broken" boards without public reports from the list. For all we know, those boards may have been tested more than two years ago, and flashrom has added support for countless mainboard chipsets, flash translation chips and flash chips since then. It is actually pretty likely that most/all of them now work fine. If not, we need detailed reports so we can fix them or at least find out why they are broken. Maintaining an ever-growing list of "broken" boards without detailed information just makes us look bad, and we'll never have a chance to find out if the boards are still broken.
I'd also like to set a few rules for future board related patches: - The changelog should always contain a link to the mail (or pastebin/whatever) from the reporter. Name alone is not sufficient because it makes finding the actual report pretty hard or even impossible. - If the report is about a broken/unsupported board, we additionally need links to lspci/superiotool results in the changelog, and a link to the mailing list post in the board notes in the board table.
(Well, having URLs for success reports in the table as well would be nice to have as long as they are never compiled in. Following svn blame is an absolute nightmare if I want to find out who originally added a success/failure report, and in case a patch affects already supported boards, it is not my idea of fun to spend a few hours searching for the original tester. But I'm not really advocating this because it wouldn't exactly make the table more readable.)
