+Experimental RISC-V Server Platform Reference board (``rvsp-ref``)
+==================================================================
+
+The RISC-V Server Platform specification `spec`_ defines a standardized
+set of hardware and software capabilities that portable system software,
+such as OS and hypervisors, can rely on being present in a RISC-V server
+platform. This machine aims to emulate this specification, providing
+an environment for firmware/OS development and testing.
+
+The main features included in rvsp-ref are:
+
+* a new CPU type rvsp-ref CPU for server platform compliance
+* AIA
+* PCIe AHCI
+* PCIe NIC
+* No virtio mmio bus
+* No fw_cfg device
+* No ACPI table
+* Minimal device tree nodes
+
+The board is being provisioned as *experimental* because QEMU isn't
+100% compliant with the specification at this moment - we do not have
+support for the mandatory 'sdext' extension. The existence of the board
+is beneficial to the development of the ecossystem around the specification,
+so we're choosing the make the board available even in an incomplete state.
+When 'sdext' is implemented we'll remove the 'experimental' tag from it.
