Dear Keith,
I'm a bit unhappy about your patches.
First, I don't know how to make heads or tails out of it.
In this subject you write "PATCH 1/11" which looks as if this were a couple of related patches coming in 11 parts, but actually all of them seem to be completely independent?
Then, I received patches 5/11, 8/11, 2/11, 11/11, 6/11, 1/11, 9/11, and 4/11. What about parts 3, 5, 7, 9, and 10?

Where in the README does it say that a CHANGELOG entry is not necessary for simple patches? I need this for each and every patch.
Then, you are violating the Coding Style requirements in a couple of places (I didn't check carefully as I was not able to apply the patches [see below], but I've seen at least indentation with spaces instead of the required TABs, indentation not by multiples of 8, and trailing white space.
Then you add nasty editor commands to your sources, like this one: /* vim: set ts=4 tw=80 sw=4 cindent fo=tcroq: */
All of this is bad, but this one is fatal and forces me to reject all your patches as they are not usable: your patches are line-wrapped which makes it impossible to apply them; for example, in [PATCH 8/11] Add support for environment storage in SystemACE:
... +- CFG_ENV_IS_IN_SYSACE: + + Define this if you have a Compact Flash (CF) card connected to a + Xilinx SystemACE controller in which you wish to store the environment. + + - CFG_SYSTEMACE_ENV_DEV: + The device (instance) number of the SystemACE device you wich to use. + This is normally zero for a system with a single SystemACE. + + - CFG_ENV_SIZE: + The size of the environment in bytes.

Please clean up and resubmit, but please the rules as documetned in the README. And make sure to configure your mailer correctly so that it doesn't corrupt your postings.
All patches rejected. Sorry.
Best regards,

Independent, as you requested but with a poor choice of naming on my part. I'll staighten this out.

Saw someone else do this on the list a while back. Sorry. I'll put in CHANGELOG entries for all patches.

Some "imported code" had this stuff, and in other cases existing code was indented by 4. I'll take a look and try to clean things up.
Then you add nasty editor commands to your sources, like this one: /* vim: set ts=4 tw=80 sw=4 cindent fo=tcroq: */
I'll remove this stuff.

This is normally zero for a system with a single SystemACE.

Crappy mail client. Is is OK to post all patches as attachements?
Please clean up and resubmit, but please the rules as documetned in the README. And make sure to configure your mailer correctly so that it doesn't corrupt your postings.
All patches rejected. Sorry.
I'll address your issues and resubmit.
