There is a newer version of this series
[PATCH v6 5/6] docs/system/arm/aspeed: move AST2700 content to new section
Posted by Jamin Lin via 6 months, 3 weeks ago 
Moved AST2700-related content from the general Aspeed board list into a
dedicated section for Aspeed 2700 family boards. Improves clarity and
readability.
