docs/hardware is redundant, because it now mostly
contains installation instructions, and docs/install
also contains hardware information. therefore, in
practise, they are both the same kind of information.
merge the two, and streamline everything. a lot of
redundant information has been removed.
docs/install/ has been re-structured in such a way
as to enable more chronological reading, to make it
easier for the average user to install Libreboot.
This is part of a larger series of changes I'm working
on for the documentation. I'm massively auditing the
entire Libreboot documentation.

it kinda needs to be there. my intention to be at peace
with *those people* is still on. you know the ones. but
there's no way to host this page without revealing that
hostility, which is currently *former* (or rather,
dormant) hostility. rather than censor specific information,
the entire page was deleted as part of the reconciliation
with fsf, referenced in the article itself, but this too was
a mistake.
no, the correct thing to do is *continue to host this page*.
the other hostile pages are not being re-added.
i'll probably delete this page again at some point, and
redirect it to a new history page, that will contain all
of the same substance and *more*, because:
this page was written in a day. it was written from start
to finish *on the same day* of libreboot's 10 year anniversary.
therefore, it's not as long as it could be.
a more complete history is on my TODO. one that also goes
into a lot more technical detail. libreboot has a rich and
vibrant history, yet has so far not documented its own
history well, and the relatively niche nature of libreboot
is that a lot of people don't really get what it's about,
so you won't find a lot of that info online - the history
of the project is entirely in my head.
there are other people who can provide their own accounts,
but i'm the only person that's been here since the beginning.
anyway, i digress.
dubiously happy hacking

fsf has never had any say over libreboot; i have. it was
all me, but i used to be part of their cult. i no longer
am.
this is housecleaning.

arthur wasn't mentioned on the history/anniversary page but
he made several major contributors to the project

the statement does not pertain to libreboot, and pertains
to a very divisive topic that libreboot need not cover
at all; it was only used as an analogy, to describe another
point, but let's just remove it. people get it, anyway.
