The last two blog posts on the coreboot blog are by two students working on their Google Summer of Code (GSoC) project. Both sound very interesting.

Jonathan Neuschäfer is improving coreboot’s support for RISC-V platforms, which was initially added in 2014.

Antonello Dettori is working on improving SerialICE, “which is one of the main tools used in reverse engineering an OEM BIOS”, including coreboot integration.
