Unfortunately, we're having non-mainlined private boards only. And my entry as socfpga maintainer/co-custodioan has just been aded now ;-) However, given the many companies out there using embedded Linux nowadays, I expect many such boards exist. Any while I understand we don't want to go into too much trouble of supporting such boards, I do think maintainers of such boards should be made aware of that list, too. I guess we could note it in the toplevel README file, but finding it on denx.de would certainly help, too. Regards, Simon
