2023-02-27Documentation: Remove Patrick G. as project mentorPatrick Georgi
I can't commit to the time investment required to mentor properly and it's unfair to potential mentees to make them think otherwise.

2023-01-27docs/contributing: Rename "easy projects" to "small projects"Felix Singer
Depending on the actual issue and the experience of the contributor, "Easy projects" might not be an appropriate description for Coverity issues and similar things. Thus rename this section to "Small projects" and also update references to it.

2022-08-13payloads/tianocore: Rename TianoCore to edk2Sean Rhodes
coreboot uses TianoCore interchangeably with EDK II, and whilst the meaning is generally clear, it's not the payload it uses. EDK II is commonly written as edk2. coreboot builds edk2 directly from the edk2 repository. Whilst it can build some components from edk2-platforms, the target is still edk2. [1] tianocore.org - "Welcome to TianoCore, the community supporting" [2] tianocore.org - "EDK II is a modern, feature-rich, cross-platform firmware development environment for the UEFI and UEFI Platform Initialization (PI) specifications."

2019-11-20Remove MIPS architectureJulius Werner
The MIPS architecture port has been added 5+ years ago in order to support a Chrome OS project that ended up going nowhere. No other board has used it since and nobody is still willing or has the expertise and hardware to maintain it. We have decided that it has become too much of a mainenance burden and the chance of anyone ever reviving it seems too slim at this point. This patch eliminates all MIPS code and MIPS-specific hacks.
