Yocto Project, RISC-V International, and RISE Project
This talk outlines the recent participation agreement between RISC-V International and RISE Project to provide funding and support to make RISC-V a fully supported architecture within the Yocto Project community. We will introduce the RISC-V board member, RISE Project coordinator, and the contracted maintainer who will be interacting with YP+OE on a regular basis to field issues and provide support.
