Summary: The above LibrePlanet talk is a month-old physical presence talk and it was uploaded by the FSF 5 days ago (slides here; PeerTube link); From the official page: “The RISC-V architecture and ecosystem have undergone tremendous growth recently. We will take a look at the current state of RISC-V and its current deployment footprint. We’ll discuss where RISC-V may be headed and the role it may play in completely open and free datacenter servers, tablets, and cellphones. We will review the emergence of the ARM architecture and how in may be an important stepping stone to a free computing platform. We’ll discuss the differences between the ARM licensing model and the X86_64 architecture licensing model as well as the role of ARM processors in cell phones and cloud datacenters (such as AWS). Finally, we’ll take a brief look at some options for starting RISC-V free and open hardware development for both experienced FPGA programmers and newbies. We’ll explain options including physical RISC-V processors, FPGAs, and software emulation.”
