+ Look into the possibility of expanding libreboot to support non-coreboot systems. (u-boot, for instance).
+ Currently, libreboot presents itself as a deblobbed coreboot distribution. There are other systems out there
+ that use other firmware, such as u-boot, which libreboot could theoretically support. This would mean that
+ the build scripts know how to build things other than just coreboot/grub.
+ <ul>
+ <li>Allwinner A10 (ARM) SoCs</li>
+ <li>PMON?</li>
+ <li>barebox (u-boot derivative)</li>
+ <li>etc</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ GRUB: analyse how coreboot builds GRUB. Does it use it's own toolchain? Look into simplifying the building
+ of GRUB (and memtest86+) using coreboot's own toolchain (crossgcc) instead of distro toolchain.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ .spd.hex files. These aren't blobs? Don't remove them? (in coreboot). See deblob script.
+ Categorize blobs and non-blobs more clearly, explaining what they are for
+ and why they are (or are not) blobs.

i945: fix linux (if possible). VBT. http://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/2014-June/078104.html

This is talking about without native init / oprom. Paul reported it, look into it.

<li>add roda rk9 support (contact nico to ask for more details about hw). This is GM45 but these machines do not have a descriptor (no ME), should be easy</li>
<li>
port acer aspire 5738 to coreboot (gm45)? (and then libreboot). EC is the main blocker (no support in coreboot yet).
