[U-Boot] Next steps

Hey all,
I know some of you have known me for ages, and some of you only as long as my jaunt back into U-Boot over the last year. Rather than talk myself up, I'd like to go with actions to let everyone know you're in good hands.
I'd like to ask a few things of the community right now. If you're a custodian and have an outstanding pull request (I see a few on the mailing list right now even), please assign it to me in patchwork and shoot me a private email with a link too. If you aren't in patchwork please sign up. I know it's imperfect and we've talked about how to make something better, but it's the tool we have today.
If you're a developer, and you have outstanding patches without an obvious custodian, please assign it to me in patchwork after making sure it applies to top of tree mainline still and shoot me a private email with the links and perhaps a few lines about what your patch(s) do.
Finally, I'd like to ask for your patience as I come up to speed on everything that's outstanding still. I'd like to do -rc1 on the 21st of this month, -rc2 on the 28th, -rc3 on Oct 5th and release on Oct 15th.

Dear Tom Rini, Dear Albert Aribaud,

I just sent my pull request for u-boot-avr32 and have some more fixes for u-boot-atmel which will require at least one more pull request for you Albert. Additional to theses fixes there are two patches missing which should go through Mikes sf branch [1]. Is it Ok to pick these two patches through u-boot-atmel if Mike is not responding until this Weekend? I will then send another pull request for u-boot-atmel/master presumably Saturday the 15th, is this Ok for you?

Unless Albert says otherwise, I imagine waiting until Mike picks things up this weekend will be fine.
