06:34PM EDT - Q: plans to support RVV 1.0? A: 0.7.1 for now - when we designed, it was still at that level. We are following and working on that yes.

From https://www.anandtech.com/show/15991/hot-chips-2020-live-blo...

0.7.1 and 1.0 will not be compatible IIRC thus Linux distribution most likely will not support RVV on this.

It's not just vector, it's an incompatible version of bitmap too.

I presume "brave" was used ironically. It would be very unfortunate if it fractures the ISA but I'm optimistic that it will not.

As long as they use this version in their own products and update when RVV is finalized it should work out fine.
