I mean a full Databook &amp;#x2F; Technical Reference Manual, not maybe 30 pages of overview, maybe a list of register base addresses (if you&amp;#x27;re lucky), and a pile of Linux kernel patches (upstream if you&amp;#x27;re lucky, but still of less value to someone wanting to actually write code for &amp;#x2F; port something to the SoC) or an &amp;quot;SDK&amp;quot; containing a bunch of low quality vendor code for the peripherals.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;d love to see a RISC-V SoC (not just a dinky little MCU) that has real &amp;#x2F; complete documentation.  So far I have yet to find any for any of the various RISC-V based SBCs that have shipped.</text></comment>

I&amp;#x27;ve always felt the Beagle boards were superior to Raspberry Pis, and that the RPi mostly succeeded because of better marketing and outreach efforts.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s nice to see the project still chugging along</text></comment>
