admin Posted April 7 Posted April 7 Dear Armbian Community, We’re thrilled to announce that Armbian development is currently at full throttle, with significant improvements to our build framework and daily bug fixes. Our community of regular contributors has grown, and we’re witnessing increased utilization of the build framework. Here are some highlights of what’s been happening lately: Framework Enhancements: We’ve been diligently working on enhancements to our build framework, focusing on areas such as kernel config management, libc generation, kernel debugging, and kernel security checks. Hardware Support: In collaboration with Sinovoip, we’ve added new platinum supported hardware which brings higher level of support. In collaboration with Radxa, we’ve integrated the new Zero 3E/3W boards into our build framework, expanding our hardware support. Additionally, we have several boards in staging: Bananapi M4 Zero, Rock S0, and several community added targets: Orangepi Zero 2W, FriendlyElec CM3588 NAS, X96 Mate TV Box. Home Assistant Integration: We’ve incorporated additional fixes for Home Assistant, further enhancing Armbian-powered Home Assistant deployment. Updated images with these fixes have been released. If you encounter any issues, please report them here. Rockchip Kernel Updates: Following recent upgrades of Rockchip vendor kernels, the entire Rockchip family now benefits from the first open-source panthor driver implementation. While this marks significant progress, it’s important to note that these images are experimental and may contain bugs. Download them from the board download pages under “Daily/Rolling releases from CI pipeline.” Code Review Initiative: In light of recent incidents, such as the backdoor discovered in a widely used open-source tool (xz), we recognize the importance of robust code review processes. We’re actively seeking community members who can contribute to improving our code review practices. If you’re passionate about open-source and want to make a difference, consider applying to become a code reviewer here. Thank you for your continued support and contributions to the Armbian project. Together, we’re building a stronger, more secure open-source ecosystem. Warm regards, The Armbian Team View the full article
