Dear Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD,

I'd rather see convergence and consolidation (i. e. pulling out-of-tree features into mainline) instead of ever growing divergence.
especially considering the openmoko code has seen real world use
what tell you this one does not?
Well, speaking for me: I did not run into any product on the market that runs this code. I did run into the Openmoko implementation,t hough, and a *lot* of other software developers did so, too. Even if they did not study the code, they know it exists, where you can download it from, and how it works on a real device.
This one does see real world too for sometimes
Maybe. But I am not aware of it ever hitting any significant part of the free software community before.
Please note that I do not claim in any way your code was bad, or that the Openmoko code is so much better. I did not make any such comparison. But I insist that the two implementations must be compared, and it must be checked if there is a way to come up with a single, compatible implementation.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
