  (I was going to poke Rockchip guru Quentin Schulz privately about
this but figured, might as well get lots of opinions.)

  I'm working on a new Rockchip project and while previous projects
here have assumed using SWUpdate for OTA updates, I notice that the
meta-rockchip layer's README refers to an example of using RAUC for
A/B updates:

  https://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-rockchip/tree/README#n125

  I'm curious ... do the Rockchip folks prefer RAUC to SWUpdate? I'm
not wedded to SWUpdate and am open to arguments for trying RAUC
instead. Thoughts?
