Paul,

I'm very interested, as I've now mostly consumed the resulting freedom
from the consumers side: Chromebook actually flashed by Kevin, and a
Lime2 at the office running Domotiga home automation software.

Still planning for flashing LibreCMC in the future though (any change
for that topic?). Also I'd like to get a more practical insight in the
Intel shackles and back-doors.

Regards,
Nico
