Indeed. It's unfortunate that they need to do their work in spite of the companies that make the hardware.

Actually I would like to get involved in that. What are the IRC channels referenced in the post?

Sadly it is private. It is a channel for reverse engineering silicon devices. If you are interested and you hang out in IRC channels for microcontrollers, FPGAs, etc, and ask the right questions you may get an invite.
