How about having some contributing guidelines to help guide PRs in the right direction?

• Should we allow to edit other people's point?
• Is there a predefined architecture for the document? Do we need one? I was thinking about a section for describing the document, one for the direct counter-points to ARM and one for custom community-brought points in favour of RISC-V.

I'll comment what comes to mind as the day goes on.

This is what looks fishy to me:

This is no better than the Microsoft "Get the Facts" campaign of the late 00's [1]. This is a quite frankly disgusting business tactic and I will be forwarding this to Simon Segars at ARM explaining my dismay.

The original website has been taken down. As much as I love the satire which this repository tries to use to poke at ARM, they have pulled back now.

Which kind of 'finishes' the joke of this site. IMHO leaving it online will turn the narrative into something 'we are honestly trying to badmouth ARM' which is - to my understanding - not the core idea what this was about.

So I tip my hat to this move which was well played and suggest that this website is also taken down soon. So we can get back to cooperative improvement of the RISCV future.
