Nice to see Ada being added to coreboot. AFAIK the Google Chromebooks use coreboot. Much leaner than Intel's UEFI, which is slow and unreliable (personal experience) IMO.

In the coreboot mailing list message that actually mention they are using Spark. Not clear though whether that is Spark 2014 or an older version.
