Can anybody tell me if/when there will be an official port for the LPC546xx series of MCUs? Does FreeRTOS annouce these things in advace so we know when to expect it?

FreeRTOS will run on any Cortex-M device, using a choice of 5 (6?)
different compilers. That is because FreeRTOS doesn’t use anything
outside of the Cortex-M core itself, so the code will work on any MCU
that has that core. There isn’t a pre-configured project for that
device, but it is impossible to provide demos for every Cortex-M device
with every compiler we support. There are lots of examples to copy
though, and some info on the web:
