Well, that's not strictly true, we will continue to fix things that are broken, but I would prefer than any new development (e.g. support for new boards or devices) happened in 2.5. It's a bit disappointing that 8xx still doesn't compile in 2.5. I don't have any 8xx hardware to test on so I have been relying on others to update it. > Would it help if I came up with a 2.5 patch for fec.c?
