Or, to put it differently, to document what was once suported and now
is no longer.

Well, of course you can search - but the you need to know what to
dearch for.  If you have no idea what to look for, then a text file
listing all the options that onces existed might be helpful to focus
your search - say, on specific board names and such.

That was the idea behind README.scrapyard - give you information what
you could use as search anchors for closer investigations.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

It may be bad manners to talk with your mouth full, but it isn't  too
good either if you speak when your head is empty.
