Indeed - specifically the statement under "Who will help you?".

I searched both the FAQ and the Wiki for things like "Which players does
Rockbox run on?", "Is player X supported?", "I want to run Rockbox - what
player should I buy?" but I couldn't find anything that seemed to say how the
porting process to new platforms works.

I found http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/BuyersGuide which is very good, but still
doesn't explain the situation for other devices not listed there.

(Personally I know the answer to the question; I've been using Rockbox for
years, but I was just surprised that someone looking at the site for the
first time couldn't easily see this as a Frequently Asked Question.)
