Chromium OS for SBC project, through Dylan Callahan, announced the Chromium OS for Raspberry Pi 3 single-board computers.

Don't be fooled by the version number, because there was no previous version of Chromium OS for Raspberry Pi 3, as the team just wanted for this port to be on par with the one for Raspberry Pi 2 boards. Therefore, it includes many of the new features and improvements introduced by Chromium OS for Raspberry Pi 2 0.5.

Among these, we can mention the Linux 4.2.8-ckt8 kernel with a reduced size, BFS tweaks for improved latency, less debugging output, and without dynamic ticks, multiple improvements to the sound driver, as well as better storage performance, mostly thanks to the new BFQ hierarchical scheduler and ondemand scheduler tweaks.
