[U-Boot] I apply to maintain S3C6400 board for u-boot
Hi Denx,
I get some information from MAINTAINERS file. I know The board of S3C6400 is a orphaned board. Also I have not the board, But I have a S3C6410 board in my hand. In my development u-boot for my board, I know the S3C6410 replace the s3c6400, and they use the same arm1176 architecture. So I think that I can help do a little thing for S3C6400's u-boot.
In the recently, I send the patch serial of S3C6400. This patch is very important for S3C64XX. It clear the old method to operate the I/O port, and adopt the new SPL boot to reduce the code number. I expect get the advice for this patch. But I wait for a long time, I do not know who can help me to review this patch? who can merge this patch?
If anyone believe me, I will continue to maintain the board, Maybe I have some limitation, Such as I have a poor english. But I believe I can keep the board can work normal in u-boot mainline, and I will reply the email about S3C64xx CPU in time.
What do you think it?
Thanks hongbo

Thanks for volunteering. If you want to take over responsbility for a board (even an orphaned one) then please send a patch that adds you to the MAINTAINERS file.

Please don't be discouraged by missing comments - in general the rule is "No news is Good News", i. e. receiving no comments is often better than receiving a large number of deep-going change requests ;-)
These boards use Samsung SoCs, so the Samsung custodian (Minkyu Kang, on cc:) is supposed to process these, but please note that the merge window is currently closed, which might explain for lack of comments.

Thanks you very much in advance. Your efforts are highly appreciated.
