Yeah the cm-t3770 is on my todo list, but I've left it last as it's my
home router and has been behaving quite nicely.

That should then cover:

SBC-T3530
http://compulab.co.il/products/sbcs/sbc-t3530/

SBC-T3517
http://compulab.co.il/products/sbcs/sbc-t3517/

SBC-T3730
http://compulab.co.il/products/sbcs/sbc-t3730/

They all seem to have the same baseboard, and the CPU module is
different. So getting the 3530 and 3517 variants working should
be trivial. I don't have 3530 or 3517 variants, so somebody else
will need to do those two.

And Nishant just posted a .dts file for the 3517 craneboard.

Yes that's correct, hopefully we'll have that in v3.13.

Yes that's something that should be fixes for v3.13 as well.

Hmm n800 works for me here for sure, I can n-uple check today.

Well ideally we would have no regressions when doing this, but I've
been chasing people and bugs for few years now on this DT conversion
and we still always find something. In most cases it should be just
a question of configuring a board specific .dts file. I don't have
all the boards though, so I've only done the ones I have naturally.
