[LinuxBIOS] Winflashrom -- Current Status

So, previous testbed motherboard is dead because of a spike :-(

I've bought an AMD690G system for further development. Nonetheless, there's
a problem with the datasheets.
The SB600 datasheet from AMD documents informs nothing about the PCI
registers pertaining to "flash enable".
The only solution is to reverse-engineer a working solution, i.e. Award
Winflash to find out about it because it
supports the platform. I need this because I need to test my further
Winflashrom code in my testbed prior to
releasing it. Unless someone would donate a motherboard with an already
supported chipset ;-).

My question is, how can I provide you guys with a clean source code that
would be legal?

Should I be producing a document and someone else here code it for me and
others?
( I think this is what "clean room reverse engineering", right?)
Or, there is a better solution.
