Plans for further HW revisions?

[marcih]

Due to a flaw, I believe there is at least one revision to board 1.2a that is coming with the Manjaro edition PinePhones in November 2020.

For details see: https://xnux.eu/log/#022

Hmmm, I remember reading about a backlight issue that was present in 1.2 and still is in 1.2a: https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php?title=PinePhone_v1.2a
The one that you've linked on megi's dev log is a different one, right? The wiki seems to say so anyway.

I wonder why the fact that the Manjaro batch will (supposedly) be a new revision hasn't been advertised. Have hardware revisions previously been announced ahead of release (so that, for example, a user with an older revision can buy the new batch with a new revision that fixes a bug that has annoyed them)?
