[U-Boot] [ANN] U-Boot v2016.07-rc2 released
Hey all,
It's release day and v2016.07-rc2 is out and on time. I expect to do -rc3 in another two weeks. I've updated git and the tarballs are also up now.
We've gotten a number of PRs in with the sort of changes that should go in, in. Going forward now changes really should be of the bug fix variety. Or Kconfig changes since we now have a test for tbot to confirm migration doesn't change the outputs (thanks Heiko!), I'm happy to see patches to migrate things where people have confirmed moveconfig.py does the right thing and verified their changes. I'm even OK running the moveconfig.py part myself.
To me, the big highlight here is that AUTOBOOT has moved to Kconfig and while this exposed some problems, it also got tools improved and the overall process made better. I do wish it wasn't so bumpy, but I think we've got it all in hand now. Thanks all!

Ok, so where do you stand on the conversion of the sunxi psci code from asm to c now? 2 weeks back you said it would be fine to put this in the v2016.07 cycle and then the BOOT_DELAY changes happened and I was waiting for those to get fixed before submitting a new pull-req.
Note I'm fine with doing things either way.
Regards,
Hans

Sorry, that and some vacation ate up my time. Please send a PR with the changes and I'll take it, thanks!

I might be blind but I don't see a tarball here :) ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/

You're not blind, I just skimmed that too quickly at the airport this morning and I'm bad and edit my old release emails :)
