Since my time has increased, no commute, no leisure travel, I was thinking of following one of the open source hardware projects, but at the chip level. I already follow RISC-V, (an open source 32/64 bit CPU), which made more headway than OpenRISC in the same amount of time.
So, does anyone know of an open source chip or chip set for these functions?
Probably somethings will be out of scope, like:

- Gigabit Ethernet, (or better)
- SATA or SAS controller
- USB controller
- GPU
Probably somethings will be out of scope, like:
- Power supplies, (too much risk of, well death, if done poorly)
- Network over A.C., (aka powerline networking)
- WiFi, (far too much work to get it certified)
- Cable MODEM, (again getting it certified would take too much work)
