The baytrail FSP was added in Coreboot by the commit
954f3882f1ea8512de9a5a6a38569c36bffae405 ("Add the Bay Trail FSP
include & srx directories") by Martin Roth, proably not on behalf on
Intel.
The commit also contains an email address from Martin Roth with the
se-eng.com domain (from Sage Electronic Engineering) and doesn't
contain any email address related to Intel. This increase the
probability that Intel wasn't involved in adding the Bay Trail FSP to
Coreboot.
Because of the (strong) doubts, the fact that the Bay Trail FSP was
also removed upstream and that GNU Boot doesn't support computers with
Intel Bay Trail, it's easier to just remove the nonfree software.

This was introduced in ARM trusted firmware in the commit
c76631c52b0b1550ff182c177555485700274314 ("rockchip: include hdcp.bin
and declare hdcp key decryption handler").
The hdcp.bin file contains code as it is included inside one of the
arm-trusted-firmware drivers with the following code:
__asm__(
".pushsection .text.hdcp_handler, \"ax\", %progbits\n"
".global hdcp_handler\n"
".balign 4\n"
"hdcp_handler:\n"
".incbin \"" __XSTRING(HDCPFW) "\"\n"
".type hdcp_handler, %function\n"
".size hdcp_handler, .- hdcp_handler\n"
".popsection\n"
);
The same file that contains the above code has the following copyright header:
* Copyright (c) 2017-2018, ARM Limited and Contributors. All rights reserved.
*
* SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-3-Clause
This conflicts with the message of the commit mentioned above:
For some reason, HDCP key decrytion can't open source in ATF, so we
build it as hdcp.bin. Besides declare the handler for decrypting.
and we also have missing corresponding source code.
Because of the lack of source code, and the fact that GNU Boot doesn't
support computers with RK3399 yet, it's easier to remove the hdcp.bin
firmware than to pursue other ways to fix the issue.

The test data consists mostly in nonfree boot firmware images. The
images contain nonfree binaries like for instance microcode updates
without complete and corresponding source code.
As more and more boot firmware images are added over time it's a good
idea to just remove everything in that directory to make sure that we
don't ship nonfree software from that directory again, while also
lowering the maintenance costs.

- It checks if the test works fine and if someone forgot to add some

- It checks if the build system produces files that it should not

- It can also check if some leftover files are there from previous

We had both issues described in the text during the RC2:
- Both maintainers agreed to merge a translation under a pseudonym but
one of the maintainers also asked to GNU permission to do that. Due
to a miscommunication between the maintainers it was pushed before
getting feedback from the GNU project.
- Both maintainers agreed to the release commit but due to a
misunderstanding / miscommunication it was pushed too early while
some other commits that still need to be made were supposed to go in
before that announcement commit in order to tag that announcement.
In both cases a process like the one mentioned in the text would
probably avoid to push things too early, especially because the author
of the patch set new about these issues and had them in mind all the
time, and since an additional Ack from that person would still be
needed before pushing, it would avoided this issue.

'#!/usr/bin/env python' but there is no 'python' when installing

The file adding the news is named gnuboot-december-2023.md instead of
gnuboot-0.1-rc1.md as the later is understood as a translation in the
'1-rc1' lang. Renaming the file to gnuboot-0.1-rc1.en.md instead makes
untitled detect the lang correctly but then it assumes this is a
translation and adds a broken link for "English" on the new page.
For now the older Libreboot news were kept as this shows the history
of the project and since GNU Boot is a continuation of the Libreboot
project it makes sense to also keep them.
The CSS also needed to be separated from the template because
otherwise the generated news page would be incomplete and miss all
what comes before the CSS like '<!DOCTYPE html>' for instance.
Finally x-reviewed was changed into x-unreviewed because we can't set
x-reviewed for the news, so the only way to remove the banner for the
individual news is to default to reviewed (and to mark all unreviewed
files as such).
As for the Untitled patch it is needed to make the news page work.

The 'make release' or './build release all' commands build releases of
GNU Boot that consist of installable images and the upstream source
code used to build them.
The u-boot-libre package is instead meant to follow different release
schedules as it releases deblobbed versions of various u-boot releases
for reuse by distributions like Parabola.
Before the commit 857afa42a8 ("Switch to
packages structure.") users were expected to run the release script of
u-boot-libre separately but after it it ended up being run
automatically as part of 'make release' or ./build release all.
Renaming this script ensure that it's not run during regular releases.

resources/packages/coreboot/../../scripts/tasks/distclean.sh:
Bad substitution
resources/packages/coreboot/distclean: 20: .:

This happens because packages/coreboot/distclean uses #!/bin/sh and
that the default sh shell isn't using bash:
$ readlink $(which sh)
dash
and using bash instead works fine:
$ bash resources/packages/coreboot/distclean ; echo $?
0
all the other distclean scripts in packages/*/ have exactly the same
issue. The tests/distlean script is also affected since it also
sources the distclean task.
So we use #!/usr/bin/env bash as it work with both Guix and regular
more or less FHS compliant distributions.

The problem here is that we don't want to describe the build system in
details in the manual for now as it is being reworked and it is

So for now we prefer to cleanup the code instead, and commenting it
