chewitt Thanks, we will do that. We have checked Kwiboo 's tree and the LibreELEC code is based on Rockchip release-4.4 branch which is forced pushed rewritten by Rockchip now(still can be downloaded/accessed from Github archive). There are some conflicts with the current Rockchip Linux tree. We will fix and send PR to kwiboo's tree.

Hello Tom. Our Rockchip codebase is in the process of being rebased against the Linux 4.20 kernel so please submit the working device-tree etc. to the upstream kernel first. If we see changes going upstream it becomes acceptable to add temporary patches to support your board. If we don't see any effort to upstream support our developers are unlikely to show interest. Thanks.
Thanks. We will have ROCK Pi 4 supported in upstream first.

There is no known contact between people in our team and Radxa. So I guess they will hack something up based on the current early alpha images and then we will have to disown it because we'll have no knowledge of what got added. NB: We're still in the middle of rewriting the V4L2 driver and associated stateless interface code in ffmpeg so there will be no beta or full release LE 9.0 images for RK3399 - it will remain in Alpha.
Tom from Radxa Team here. I am sorry for the confusion. We are very happy to work with the LibreELEC team to get ROCK Pi 4 supported. For the RK3399 platform, we think the device tree covers the hardware difference so it should not be hard to support another board. Yes, we do plan to release image based on the Alpha release with dtb replacement to meet the user demand first. We can also send PR to add support for ROCK Pi 4 and we can donate some hardware to LibreELEC developers for development.
