Why would NXP sponsor a hobby project by a Huawei developer?

"Why would anyone be interested in sponsoring a 68k"

Is that too much to ask?

Anyone who wants to run AmigaOS 4 on a legacy Amiga sporting a Motorola compatible 680x0 CPU
Why would I want to do that?

@all

Not exactly a FPGA, but imagine being able to plug inn a Killer NIC into a Vampire. At least you can run Quake really fast.
