Kudos on the naming.

This didn't get traction but this is big news, mostly for reasons not mentioned in this article:

1. It's a RISC-V chip, which means freedom from licensing fees. 2. It is built on 28nm nodes, which is a far cry from the 180nm fabrication SCL was capable of till very recently.

Now, 28nm is not the state of the art, but it is not very far either. I'm excited about getting to sub-10nm nodes in not too distant future, which may make this viable for daily desktop and mobile experience. Although I'm hoping to see some more progress on the software-side with RISC-V in that period.

Still plain rva20/rv64gc+Zcsr, but even that is progress.

Previous India chips were missing c extension, and thus not able to run Debian and the like.

I am hopeful they will eventually catch up with rva23, the base the ecosystem has agreed upon for application processors.
