    <h2 id="candidates" class="f2 lh-title ttu mt4 mb2">Source Candidates List</h2>

    <p>To join the public discussion of these candidates, please subscribe to our <a href="https://lists.sfconservancy.org/mailman/listinfo/ccs-review">ccs-review mailing list</a>.  We re-post especially notable email replies from this community mailing list in the candidate comments, alongside SFC and other official Use The Source comments on each candidate's page linked below.  A "round" indicates how many times we've received new candidates for a given device/firmware - if the round is "of N" it means we don't know how many rounds will be needed before we receive a compliant source candidate for the device/firmware.</p>
