From e0e7bba2de1122726b29e46b0301016d02286292 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Patrick Georgi Date: Sun, 1 Nov 2015 14:18:30 +0100 Subject: board-status: Update the foreword There's the sentiment that the Supported_Motherboards wiki page is outdated. Point out that the list is current (and drop the table of contents that became a distraction).
