When we did our dbm690t, we set up a SVN server in our own server, which 
everyday work was submit to. When we think the work is good enough, we send a 
patch to the community. That is a little complicated, but I believe it is a 
good way.
Currently the SuperIO is not only configured in Config.lb, but also is included 
in cache_as_ram.c. Based on this code structure, it is difficult to make a 
single switch to decide which SuperIO we are using.
Everything makes its own sense. I believe you should make up a new directory in 
mainboard for each SuperIO. Anyone else?> Date: Wed, 31 Dec 2008 01:25:53

baseboard that I am using has an ITE chip on it whereas the release board will 
have a Winbond. I don't see any way to select at configuration time which 
SuperIO/Baseboard is connected. Would it make sense to implement a standard 
SuperIO interface and just link against the one we want? Would there be a need 
to support multiple SuperIO in the same system? Has there been any steps taken 
towards doing this? Any interest other than myself?> > The release baseboard is
