I don't know enough about Qualcomm to determine if they will be good arbiters of RISC-V, but it is exciting to see a major player like Qualcomm make moves to embrace RISC-V.

Hopefully this isn't a way for Qualcomm to simply squash their competition by acquiring them and letting the company languish.

They are the biggest ARM chip maker. They have the best mobile chips so this has huge potential.

They are not good in any way except possibly line go up sense. One most evil and tedious to work with companies I've had to deal with. This might put more attention on RISC V but also more pressure to become something corrupt.
