OK, we're dropping all readers except V3 right now (while it sounds like "We're dropping all PC except Dell ones").

Oh, wait! All we develop is portable source code and Wenjie and Ondřej just need to build several drivers in kernel... So even if we drop everything except V3, they will complete their GSoC tasks and we'll get the support for Cybook (+several similar devices) and Sony PRS-505. Damn! Our project will be doomed immediately

I assume you're not familiar with how things work in the field: the idea that every device is unique and requires thorough and hard work is a myth: all the boards are quite standard ARM devices and userspace is just the same for most Linux devices all around the world.
