### Mainboard Scaleway Tagada
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
According to the author of the mainboard scaleway/tagada, the mainboard
|
|
|
|
is not used anymore. Since the mainboard is not publicly available for
|
|
|
|
purchase and not used anywhere else, the usual deprecation process of 6
|
|
|
|
months is not needed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Thus, to reduce the maintenance overhead for the community, support for
|
|
|
|
the following components will be removed from the master branch and will
|
|
|
|
be maintained on the release 4.19 branch.

### Intel Quark SoC & Galileo mainboard
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The SoC Intel Quark is unmaintained and different efforts to revive it
|
|
|
|
have so far failed. The only user of this SoC ever was the Galileo
|
|
|
|
board.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Thus, to reduce the maintanence overhead for the community, support for
|
|
|
|
the following components will be removed from the master branch and will
|
|
|
|
be maintained on the release 4.20 branch.
|
|
|

|
* Intel Galileo mainboard
