I generally don't post updates about board or SoC support to the list,
it's not my job to send status emails, sorry I have better things to
do than remember what devices/SoCs may or may not be interested in. We
have weekly arm meetings, you can follow upstream, and occasionally
for important devices like the RPi4 we will do a feature.
