there's no reason - at all - why they would put or require any proprietary firmware on it. there's no VPU, no GPU, nothing special at all. the nice thing is it looks like it'll be actual first silicon 64-bit so people can at last start doing native compiles. that's particularly important for debian: cross-compiled or qemu-compiled
Well, if you are certain then... I guess it is important.
packages are *not* accepted (arch they don't mind).
I am curious why arch is different then debian...
smaller team, less well-established, rolling releases. debian's strict rules, established and tested over 20+ years now, means it can be trusted for critical infrastructure.
