batocera.linux - Any plans to compile for Orangepi?

Will batocera.linux ever be developed for the Orangepi?

I have used RetrOrangepi in the past, but I like batocera.linux for the fact that I can easily transfer across roms, scraper settings and files from one system to another (Such as my Odroid to my RPi3 and my Raspberry Pi 0).

Also, what about Banana Pi?

I am still willing to donate an Orangepi 1 to the cause!

I ported the recalbox to xu4 c2 x86 x8664 each time for a particular reason.
Power, ...
Orangepi has not something special as far as i remember.
Porting and supporting an arch take time. While im alone to work on batocera i prefer for the moment to make it better for the current arch.

Would be good if the orange pi happened one day.
Testing using Retrorange Pi, I would say the performance is a little behind the raspberry Pi, but good enough to run 32x and PlayStation games.
Plus, the orange pi is dirt cheap to buy! Good if you want to give one to your friends.

@Demonho i need external help for that, for a question of time. the number of contributors is low and supporting more platform takes time. so for the moment, i keep concentrate on the exiting platform. i'll extend the platform list when i'll get less work on the current platforms or new people helping me.
