Plans to move platform support to a branch
------------------------------------------
### 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.
* Mainboard Scaleway Tagada
### 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 Quark SoC
* Intel Galileo mainboard
