Hi,

the schedule for the U-Boot mini conference next week has been finalized:

,---------------+-----------------+----------------------------------------------. | Time | Speaker | Summary | |---------------+-----------------+----------------------------------------------| | 13:00 - 13:20 | Marek Vasut | Using i.MX28/i.MX233 without Freescale tools | | 13:30 - 13:50 | Scott Wood | TPL: SPL loading SPL | | | | (and, SPL as just another U-Boot config) | | 14:00 - 14:20 | Stefano Babic | Falcon Boot: current status and | | | | enhancements | |---------------+-----------------+----------------------------------------------| | 14:30 - 14:45 | | Break | |---------------+-----------------+----------------------------------------------| | 14:45 - 15:05 | Lukasz Majewski | Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU) - | | | | present situation and future development | | 15:15 - 15:35 | Jagan Teki | U-boot verified RSA boot flow on arm - | | | | with demo run | | 15:45 - 16:05 | Simon Glass | Driver model, Kconfig and a little Patman | |---------------+-----------------+----------------------------------------------| | 16:15 - 16:30 | | Break | |---------------+-----------------+----------------------------------------------| | 16:30 - 17:00 | Everybody | Open Discussion | `---------------+-----------------+----------------------------------------------/

A notable change is the talk from Jagan that changed from "Android fastboot" to "U-Boot verified RSA boot flow on arm". As this would have overlapped Simon Glass' talk "Verified Boot on Chrome OS and How to do it yourself" (14:00 - 14:50) in the main track we swapped those two presentations. This way people interested in verified booting can attend both talks.

In the meantime our schedule has found its way to the main web pages[1], hopefully giving us a wider audience. Currently the swap explained in the last paragraph is still pending, but I hope this to show up soon.

In this second part of my message I'd like to invite everybody to collect topics that need/should be discussed at the U-Boot mini summit, especially in the Open Discussion part at the end. As of now we have collected two items:

- Assigning maintainership on a directory basis comparable to Linux kernel

- Proposals of maintainers to reduce their workload

What else do you want to bring to the attention of the attendants?

Cheers Detlev
