We’re being deliberate on positioning this as a Mainboard for enabling developers and tinkerers, not a consumer-ready product. As other commenters noted, the idea is to help accelerate the maturity of the RISC-V ecosystem to prepare it for consumer access in the future.
How much involvement did framework have in this becoming a thing? I'm asking because I want to get a feel for how long a decent (probably third-party) ARM mainboard might take.
