As leader of the project, my own contributions would be too vast to list here
succinctly, so just go look at literally the entire Git history. I write this
paragraph without arrogance; it is simply a fact that almost all of the commits
in Libreboot, by percentage, were written by me. I oversee Libreboot; I am its
BDFL, or at least its leader until the day when Libreboot will one day be
surpassed. Libreboot is otherwise my life-long passion, my baby.
Check the Git repositories to find my own contributions to the project. There
are a lot, too many to list here, but my work is enabled by the many people
who help me, and those who work on all the upstream projects that I use in
Libreboot. I regularly work with all sorts of people.

Angel Pons
----------
Angel is a coreboot developer. Their contributions are numerous, in that and
many other projects. Countless patches in coreboot from them have enabled
Libreboot to be what it is.
The most noteworthy work by Angel, that Libreboot imported, is the native
raminit (NRI) for Intel Haswell platform, which Libreboot was able to use
for replacing the Intel MRC. Because of these patches, Libreboot is able to
provide wholly free initialisation on that platform, in the BIOS region of
the flash. For example, the ThinkPad T440p and OptiPlex 9020 ports boot in
such a configuration, since these are Haswell machines.
Over 2000 commits in coreboot were written by Angel, as of January 2025. They
are one of coreboot's most active developers.
