Sorry for no updates recently, it's been rather rough on my end, and I haven't had the time, energy or money to put towards this project. I will not go into details as this is a public platform, but for the almost 2 years of working on this project, I've been getting mentally worse. I do acknowledge that my behavior has been very aggressive and hostile toward users due to stress, exhaustion, fatigue, loss of motivation, frustration, and depression. For this I sincerely apologize.

While I do have big plans for this project, it seems impossible due to the lack of funding. Ubuntu has been growing in size due to snaps, for example a single desktop image is now well over 2.3GB in size, which is above the artifact limit for GitHub, so a paid 3rd party service must be used to host downloads for users. Currently I release incomplete desktop images without all the expected default applications, greatly impacting the user experience to stay under the 2GB artifact limit imposed by GitHub. There is no way I can pay for a hosting service for downloads and archive storage.

I've been trying to get in contact with Rockchip for a very long time now, all of the vendors I have talked to have not been able to assist me. I need access to the latest SDKs directly from Rockchip and access to their Redmine issue board as 75% of all reported issues on GitHub are problems with the Rockchip SDK. It's very hard for me to maintain this project and support new hardware when I do not have the support or tools that I need.
