I need a place to track the status and progress of the project to purchase, test, and support Single Board Computers for SIG/AltArch and Testing teams. This is the start of it.
This list is per the poll vote of the Rocky Community. There are two additions that have been added because of rising interest after the poll. They are noted as such.
The Raspberry Pi 4's and 3's are supported by SIG/AltArch now. However, it would be good to ensure we meet the same requirements that we are placing on the other SBC's still knowing that RPi's are hard to get.
[Raspberry Pi 32bit (armhfp/armv7)](https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/processors.html)
The granted proposal allows for $20,000 (US) for purchase and support of SBC's at an estimated rate of twenty purchases for six SBC devices. This is subject to change depending on the difficulty of adding support to the devices. Also, those requiring alternative unsupported architectures (32 bit ARM and RISC-V) are still in evaluation state.
The focus will be to get those insterested in being "Developers" in SIG/AltArch access to the SBC's then get those interested in being "Testers" in the Testing Team access. Finally, those interested in participating within the Rocky community assisting others with questions and problems will be given access to remaining SBC's.
Those who are Rocky Members, or are being mentored with the goal of Rocky Membership, will be given priority access over those in the wider Rocky community. Exact details on how this will be done is still to be determined.
