*nod* - I absolutely think this is a chicken-egg problem. Due to not 
having hardware nobody is interested in doing work and due to not having 
software we don't get the hardware. Librem 5 might be just the push to 
get out of this loop. What might be needed is getting development boards 
early to KDE devs and we need to get the initial setup story good, so 
that it's easy to hack on without having to fight the system (I remember 
the horror of Nokia's maemo cross compiler)

If you need any input from the Wayland stack (e.g. rendering, input) I'm 
happy to participate, though that would mean outside of office hours ;-) 
(earliest 16 CEST).
