 it will... once people realise that the key bit that's hard is not
the processor core, it's the management and sourcing of the hard
macros *surrounding* the processor core.

It looks good! :-) I'll certainly reference that in my blog article and any 
follow-up to the discussion list. Don't forget to link to the thread I started 
on the Rhombus Tech crowdsupply wiki page! And that might be a good place to 
link to the above page, too.

You can probably post to that list or even subscribe to it without having any 
FSFE affiliation, but I guess you don't really want to spend too much time 
repeating yourself everywhere. Nevertheless, I could forward something if it 
turned out that you couldn't post anything. (There was an initiative to allow 
guest contributions to various FSFE resources, but things are being rearranged 
and this might not be the case any more.)

In fact, my intention is to write a blog article about EOMA68 (and also other 
things that have been happening in similar projects), but I decided to write 
that message first because the FSFE blog site was down at the time. The topic 
is also pertinent to previous discussions as well, so we will see if anyone 
feels it worth discussing or not.

But by all means send stuff my way, get in touch privately, or whatever. :-)

hiya paul if it's ok with you i'd like to write something up, would
you be happy to forward it on my behalf?  i need to link some things
together, also i met some of the FSFE people at FOSDEM2016 and would
like them to know "this is what i showed you, it's really happening!"
because so many people there were really excited about the prospect of
a truly libre laptop.

more later?

 thought that said EOMA68-based for a minute did a bit of a
double-take there :)
