I improved column alignment a bit.

Done.

Ok. I'm using OK/BAD for now.

No, I don't differ them. I just copypasted what was in flashrom
sources previously, and there are only wonking/non-working boards
listed there.

Done.

> Tabs for separating the first few entries is OK, but I'd use exactly one
> space (not tab) after the "OK" entry and after the URL. Alignment will
> automatically still be enforced for those columns where it's possible
> (reasonably). The URL / comment fields don't make much sense to try to

Done.

> now.

Fixed.

New version of patch attached.
