Yes. I'm even planning to make it an explicit target of the SDK, like
rpi and rpi2, to wrap around the settings needed for those arm
processors. I also use rpis a lot and the RPI2 is already available also
in the Netherlands, I've ordered a few the other day...

BTW, if we can get a fullfillment service to work for us at the
percentage of the cost, we could also sell Devuan pre-installed RPIs
from our website. Please everyone keep your eyes peeled for such
opportunitites, I'm not aware of anyone doing this ATM, but I'm talking
about it with friends in the Arduino company already.

ciao
