Great! I have few comments from my side:

1) Please do not forget the QtSerialPort project we have been working
on. I see no mentionings about that.

I think serial port management is a crucial part of many existing
embedded boards and systems (just mentioning rpi via gadget serial
driver, beagleboard, pandaboard and so forth). Therefore, this should
also be a fundamental part of the vision. Luckily enough, we have a
good team around focusing on that, and can propose to a mature add-on
soon from playground.

2) Pandaboard (including the ES version) is not mentioned, but it has
been working fine for me as well. Our company has been using that
daily for business goals, so I would definitely put that there as
supported. I am sure, it is not just us. I would even say, it is
probably more appealing recently than the beagleboard.

3) I find the onboard build important as well. Perhaps I can focus
more on that, if you do not find this ability that important as the
cross-build. This is pretty much the common way for ready-made OSes I
worked with, like ubuntu-arm, arch-arm and so forth. It fits better to
many people's workflow including me.
