it looks like nobody is maintaining such a stable branch yet. Would you
volunteer to maintain one for Quark? AIUI, some people already want to
take care of testing. So you'd only have to maintain compatibility with
newer toolchain and payload versions and such.

FWIW, most resources for newer platforms are wasted by copying code
(kind of forking the original code in the same repository). So there
is much more potential to save resources by adding proper abstraction
instead. And what would be better to get the abstractions right than
a diverse set of platforms in the tree? I'm not saying, you need Quark
for that, but so far I also don't see how it could hurt.
