[U-Boot] I'm coming back :)

Hi Guys,
Due to personal circumstances I left the U-Boot community back in late October 2012.
Now I find my circumstances have been completely flipped upside down (long story) and I will soon have much more time on my hands. Unfortunately, I do not have a dev machine yet (that may take a couple of months) but at least I can start by reading the list again and get up to speed with what is going on.
I want to send out a huge Thank You to Simon Glass for taking over the custodianship of the x86 repo. It's been really great to see my little baby grow up. Not only that, but he has taken over the campaign of architecture unification. I think I'm going to really like the new look U-Boot :)
And another big Thanks toTom Rini, without whom U-Boot would have been at great risk of stumbling right when it was getting the greatest amount of momentum it ever had.
Looking forward to being part of the team again. This time I will be focusing on ARM based devices, particularly the AllWinner A10 and A31. So Simon, I won't be taking x86 from you (I hope you don't mind)
Graeme

Welcome back Greame, and I'm happy to see work being done on AllWinner, A31 especially, as I happen to have a Mele A1000G mon my desk and am eager to get it running Debian. :)

Amicalement,

Thank you Graeme. It has definitely made it easier to add new features that work on all archs.

It will be great to see you back. I haven't been quite so active on x86 since things mostly work on link. But thanks for all your help with the reviews and tidy-ups there.
Regards, Simon

Welcome back! I've got one of the AllWinner A10 boards around here too, and am eagerly awaiting Henrik's next submission as I think things are close to mergable.

Excellent - I'm familiar with Henrik's work and it is top-notch.
I'm thinking of focusing on the SPL component - Adding a file system so the DRAM parameters and U-Boot can be read from a standard file system rather than fixed blocks
I'll purchase an A10 and A31 device soon
Regards,
Graeme
