" summary

Overview of where RISC-V software actually lives and who pays for it: the ecosystem documents and tracks work on the RISC-V wiki and GitHub with ports for GCC/LLVM support, OS ports (Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Zephyr, FreeBSD), and the Spike simulator available upstream. A new Linux Foundation project, RISE, forms with 13 founding organizations providing at least one dedicated engineer each, runs three RFPs in flight, and requires RISC-V International membership to fund upstream projects aiming to bring platform quality up to parity.
