I have updated a bit the Raspberry Open Projects page with the state of 
the low level peripherals project, and provided links to the state of 
each of the other projects (the wiki pages of the students working on 
them last year, which also include their blogs and githubs).

https://devel.rtems.org/wiki/Developer/Projects/Open/ImproveRaspberryPiBSP

  The other 3 raspberry projects I do not know exactly their current 
state, but they already have some work done (just not in the RTEMS tree 
yet).

It seems that only GPIO, I2C and SPI were merged last year.

For the last year efforts on the SD card support you can refer to:
