     Best thing is Kent had a good point.

     @sally @PurpCat Linux-libre would be happy to make a release with the changes merged is as long as someone volunteers to maintain it.

     I wonder if GNU/Linux-libre would be interested in merging such changes, that'd be hilarious.

     @PurpCat @sally GNU/Linux-libre has better hardware support than BSDs, as it has more drivers.
     
     Absolute garbage hardware usually isn't supported by the BSD's anyway, despite their efforts to include all the proprietary software.

     @sally tbh that fork also probably has worse hardware support than bsd

     @Pi_rat GNUbooted KGPE-D16.
     
     Dual Opteron 6282 SE's.
     
     Nvidia 780 Ti (ironically has a free driver, including free VBIOS init and free peripheral software).
     
     64 GB ECC DDR3.
     
     Zen CPUs unfortunately are impossible to GNUboot, as AMD uses digital handcuffs to prevent the replacement of the proprietary malware.
