Thanks for your offer. I understand you are concerned that your patches don't get processed as fast as you'd like. I'm sorry for that.
Yes. This is my sole concern. Though we are all very busy, it is importance to have timely response to the community.
So far, Scott has done a good job as custodian. As far as I remember, there have never been any complaints about his work. Also, he assured me that he is willing to continue performing this duty, to the best of his capabilities.
Yes, I agree. Scott did a good job. Please keep on.
From the point of quality assurance it is always a good thing to have
somebody else but the original author doing the final checking of the code.
Yes, it is good.
I think a custodian should also response early to patches with global changes like that of arch dir move and root Makefile cleanup.
I would therefore like to continue working as we do now, with Scott as custodian, at least for the time being. And I will try to keep an eye on the state of affairs for the NIOS patches.
I have two more mmc patches waiting for Andy's review,
05/03 [PATCH 1/3] lib: add crc7 from Linux 05/19 [PATCH 3/3 v8] mmc: add generic mmc spi driver
Once they get merged, I will update the nios wiki to use u-boot mainline instead of our local branch. Beside, we are going to add fdt to nios2 linux, we will need your grand support.
Thank you very much for your attention. Thanks to Scott, too.
Best regards, Thomas
