I feel this is important because this board seems the obvious entry point into the RISC-V ecosystem for enthusiasts.&lt;p&gt;* The &amp;#x27;BOOM&amp;#x27; processor which showed many efficiency gains doesn&amp;#x27;t seem to be getting anywhere further than last time i checked on it which was perhaps a year or more ago. -edit- looking on their github releases, 2.1 was 6mo ago, and 2.1.1 was recent but shows minor changes, the project unfortunately looks stalled to me.&lt;p&gt;* LowRISC which has one or two of the RaspberryPi co-founders on board, which seems to be a good sign as far as &amp;#x27;getting something out the door&amp;#x27; - i can&amp;#x27;t seem to see any output from their project?&lt;p&gt;Please prove me wrong, i&amp;#x27;d like to get involved somehow but i have to be careful where I invest my time :)</text></comment>
