Hi,
I just prepared a git repository for our U-Boot-NG proposal. Do a
git clone http://iocaste.extern.pengutronix.de/git/U-Boot-NG.git
(no native git support at the moment)
There is also a tarball snapshot available here:
http://pengutronix.de/software/ptxdist/temporary-src/U-Boot-NG-20070702.tar....
This is only a temporary place for the source, further development should probably either be done on Wolgangs server or some other dedicated server. The tree is based on vanilla U-Boot-1.2.0.
As a starting point I've included the README in this mail. It's also included in the source tree under README.u2. Further documentation can be found under Documentation/ and of course in the code ;)

Hi Sascha,
This is very, very interesting. One stupid ;-) question, what sort of trade-offs are we looking at, other than the lack of backwards support of various boards? In particular, how does the memory footprint compare for an equivalently configured target?
Thanks, gvb
