Ok, since it's obviously best if the patches are sent to this list in the first place, I've added a note to

I'll try to catch the ones that aren't and pass them on before merging.
Can you drop the AVR32 u-boot mailing list entirely and direct posters here? It's not like the u-boot list is high volume and it would be better to discuss even arch specific changes in the common forum.
Yeah, that's a good point. When we created the kernel list at avr32linux.org we sort of figured it might be a good idea to create one for u-boot as well. Perhaps that was a bad move.
However, I'm a bit afraid of losing some of the potential testers that are subscribed to that list. Contributors should probably subscribe to u-boot-users to get a better feeling of the whole picture, but I suspect that some people aren't all that interested in everything that happens on the main mailing list, while they might very well be interested in testing specific bugfixes or improvements targeted towards avr32 boards.
I think the avr32linux.org list is also a good place to announce releases and pre-releases of our "vendor" loaders. Those are probably only interesting to people using avr32.
So I think I want to keep the list for now, as a very-low-volume avr32-specific thing. The volume on u-boot-users seems to be picking up; that's a good thing, but it may also drive some users away.
You can forward everything on the AVR32 list to the normal u-boot list easily, adding [AVR32] to the header. You could also filter the u-boot list, and anything on this list with [AVR32] in the header gets forwarded to the AVR32 list (without bouncing back of course)
