Thanks for the link to the talk! Putting it on right now. The summary for it mentions open firmware in the generic sense; on the Sun note, will Oxide be reusing OpenFirmware/OpenBoot? It's one of Sun's most fantastic accomplishments, I think, and it would be a shame for it to die off.
I love Sun! You can never get rosy enough, unless you're talking about many of its executives in the last twenty years of its life...
I'm glad you guys are taking after Sun on the hardware part (and hopefully avoiding replicating its actions in driving SPARC to the ground with RISC-V)! It will be extremely welcome to have another contender in the hardware space!
Can't wait to listen to new podcast episodes!
And thank you so much on Spring! Any bit of computing history that can be preserved is a win for our field!
