Hi Michal,
Thanks for your very detailed answer before. Really appreciated.
I fully understand that linux-xlnx on github is not meant as a community
project. I know there is nothing anyone can do anything about how github works
for now, but we all have to admit that the fact these repos are on open GitHub,
with the issues and merge-requests available surely suggest that they are
community open. It would be like renting a space in a shopping center, filling
it up with stuff, letting people come in and look around, keeping an associate
next to a cash register, but when people go up to the guys, he would constantly
have to say "I'm sorry, this is not really a store. You can't purchase anything
here."
It's no the biggest problem I'm sure, but until MRs and issues can be disabled
on GitHub, you will have submissions from passer-bys, confusion and
frustrations from "would-be" contributors. You *could* switch to gitlab.com
which already allows removing the issues and MR sections if I am not mistaken.
Just a thought.
On the topic of the xilinx code in linux-yocto...

I know you already took great care with your answers, really sorry, but this is
still not clear for me...
So can we expect the same level of board functionality from linux-yocto as we
enjoy on linux-xlnx/2019.1 ?
And are you saying that whatever xilinx specific code is on linux-yocto now and
that is not in linus' tree will be maintained going forward on linux-yocto?
Correct this if it's wrong: I imagine one should track linux-xlnx together with
vivado/sdk/meta-xilinx-tools/petalinux releases, but use linux-yocto for the
open-source/meta-xilinx(only)/poky releases.
Thanks for clarifying this even further! ;)
