I looked at sites you mentioned. I haven't any configuration feature on
johnlewis.ie Instead it provides an instruction for running special shell
script. But I much more liked original Rom-o-matic. I want do develop same
thing, but with fancier design, if you mind) I have more questions:

How important this project for coreboot community is?
Do I have to fix some bugs or make any other sort of contribution, before
submitting my proposal?
Do you have a proposal template or some special requirments for it?
What do you think about nodejs, as a backend?

Thanks in advance!
