Hi Peter,
+What: Individual I2C commands +When: April 2009 +Why: Per the U-Boot README, individual I2C commands such as "imd", "imm",
- "imw", etc are deprecated. The single "i2c" command which is
- currently enabled via CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE contains the same
- functionality as the individual I2C commands. The individual
- I2C commands should be removed as well as any references to
- CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE.

Would people prefer there be a period of time where both the individual i2c commands as well the single "i2c" command are both supported for boards without CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE? If so, I'd add some deprecation messages to the individual commands.
Its a little PITA to add a "DEPRECATED" message to all the "old style" commands as they are also called by the newer "i2c" command, so just wanted to check before submitting a patch.
I vote for doing the transition in one step. It's simply not worth too much effort in my eyes. We have other areas needing more attention ;)
Cheers Detlev
