Indeed. My implementation is at https://github.com/superchalupa/go-redfish/

It is in golang and it is trivial to cross compile for ARM. Build instructions
are now in the README.

Additionally, as detailed in my previous email, if you have cross openssl
library available, you can compile against that purely for additional speed.
(2x as fast!) There is a helper script scripts/build-arm.sh that I made for
that.

After a few weeks of work, I think that I'm finally ready for additional people
to help. With most projects, there is a minimum level of functionality that has
to be in place before you can start bringing other people on, and I finally
feel like I'm at that point.
