Adjust Parabola to work with _any_ ARM board and adapt/accept _any_ 
application?
(I guess by "adjusting the apps" Enrique is also referring to adding 
custom packages
to something like [pcr])

This needs more clarification:

For most boards we would probably be able to boot Linux-libre and run a 
normal
Parabola GNU/Linux system, but I suspect there may be some others that 
_require_
custom (and even nonfree) kernels to even work at all!

But there's something else we all know for sure we won't be able to 
support: bootloaders.
Platforms like Samsung Exynos _need_ nonfree and signed bootloaders to 
work at all. Users
are alone making sure they can boot Parabola from a proprietary 
bootloader. I mention this
because I also received Enrique's previous mail off-list days ago, and 
if I recall correctly he
is concerned with keeping things 100% free for his project. We can't 
magically free all the
software in the odroids.
