Agree. When ARM announced the initiative, I thought that the raspberry pi people would be quick but they haven't even announced a plan to eventually support it. I don't know what the hold up is! Is it really that difficult to implement?

The Pi boots on its GPU, which is a closed off Broadcom design. Likely complicates things a bit.

Apparently Pine64 and Radxa sell SystemReady-compliant SBCs; even a Raspberry Pi 4 can be made compliant (presumably by booting a UEFI firmware from the Raspberry's GPU-based custom-schmustom boot procedure, which then loads your OS).
