Thanks for the nice comment! To be completely correct, Free Electrons does not maintain Buildroot. The Buildroot maintainer is Peter Korsgaard, who is not and has never been a Free Electrons person, he has been working for Barco since many years. I do however act as an interim maintainer for Buildroot, helping the main maintainer to merge the significant amount of contributions we receive. But I'm by far not the official maintainer, and therefore do not take the big design / architecture decisions, though I can certainly influence them. In any case, stating that Free Electrons maintains Buildroot is incorrect.

OK - thanks for correcting that misconception on my part; I guess I'd just seen your name associated with Buildroot and made incorrect assumptions.
