I have a long list of things on my to do list. RISC-V is a new target, and there is lots of stuff that needs to be bug fixed, finished, or added. I can't make any guarantees. But if you file a bug report and then attach a patch to it, someone might volunteer to help finish it. Or if it is too big to be reasonably attached to a bug report (like the nano mips work) you could put it on a branch, and mention the branch name as unfinished work in a bug report. Jim
