You can add me as tester for Quartz64 Model A + B, but I don't have a SoQuartz 
(or a base/carrier board).

I can/will give it a try, but the u-boot stuff is mostly a mystery to me.
https://github.com/Kwiboo/u-boot-build/ is what I have been using so far ...

... but it looks like I have some time to learn :-P ... given the speed of 
https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-A/trusted-firmware-a/+/16952
and https://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/ci/tf-a-ci-scripts/+/20480 (although 
it does seem to have gotten some momentum recently)

In some build instructions for u-boot that I've seen there was a reference to 
an `bl31.elf` file from https://github.com/rockchip-linux/rkbin but I guess 
that's what TF-A would provide (too), but then built from source?

I also recall seeing references to a `rk3568_ddr_1056MHz_v1.18.bin` file from 
https://github.com/rockchip-linux/rkbin/tree/master/bin/rk35. AFAIK that's 
only available as a BLOB? Is that file needed? And is it a problem if that's 
only available as a BLOB?
Rockchip did add a LICENSE recently (in case that helps/is relevant):
https://github.com/rockchip-linux/rkbin/blob/master/LICENSE

Cheers,
