Maybe others are under the same wrong impression I was. The people doing the work to adapt linux are not part of the Pine64 company. Pine64 is not funding any version of Linux, other than donating hardware, AFAIK. There are a few people, but very few, who are contributing any work or knowledge, and I am not one of them.
It may seem that Raspberry PI handles this differently, because of Raspbian (Debian for Raspberry PI). But Raspbian is done by a group not funded by Raspberry PI Foundation (a not-for-profit company) although they do call Raspbian officially supported. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raspbian) The accumulated volunteer work for Raspberry PI has become huge over the many years since the first PI (2011). That is not the case so far for Pine64.
There is a group with a Pine A64 IRC channel offering help. http://uk.pine64.xyz:9090/?channels=Pine...MTE9MjE131
