Woah, I had no idea about DARPA and RISC-V. I wonder why they care about RISC-V so much? This is the best explanation that I can find:

    > Open source standards provide great benefits to U.S. taxpayers in reducing the cost of advanced military system development, and also increases security by allowing the government to build their own trusted implementations at low cost.

About their move to Switzerland, they say:

    > RISC-V International has not incorporated in Switzerland based on any one country, company, government, or event. This move is reflective of community concern and managing strategic risk for our community investing in RISC-V for the next 50+ years.

So what? If I disagree with the direction any FOSS project (or its maintainers) is taking... I can just fork it. People have done that countless times in the history of FOSS, most notably in the xOffice schism.
