A quick one for you. I have received reports, now from multiple sources, that the major torch bearer of the RISC-V platform, a company known as SiFive and formed from the original architects of the RISC-V instruction set, has gone through some major changes.

      See the register.

      “There are no changes to SiFive’s roadmap or underlying business model. SiFive continues to offer both standard and customized solutions where it makes sense for its customers. The products SiFive announced recently will move forward as planned and have been well-received. SiFive is well-funded. This is about restructuring to meet evolving customer requirements.”

      This seems mostly related to market conditions (the market now seems to want more profitable companies after the recent tech bubble) , and fake news.
