Hi Marek,

So, do we now accept new built-in environment changes again?
My good point to refuse them was that Simon's patches to move built-in environment to a .env file are quite ready to be merged. I will be happy if they can find the way to go in, as they can clean up the whole mess we have. Checking only the i.MXes boards, most CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS are cut&paste from other boards, with some minor changes making them inconsistent. The good exception are the sabre boards, because they use the same common file.
I am taking a look if we can at least guarantee that all these boards can have the same built-in environment, because it seems clear that this is what we want to reach.
I will re-submit my changes to the default environment for the boards I maintain if you don't mind then.
I cannot refuse them, I cannot (yet) offer a good alternative. Send them.
Good. I will send them when ELDK 5.5 is out, by that time they will be final.
Also, I don't see Otavio being the maintainer of most of these boards.
True, but maintainers (Fabio, Alison) were informed in CC. The patchset is quite a month old and I had to decide myself if there is a good reason to reject them - I cannot find it.
Were the patches ACKed by either of them ? There was simply no activity, which does not look like a good enough reason to accept patches ...
Best regards, Marek Vasut
