Hi Anantha, New contributors are a welcome addition, and we really should start working on our branching strategies, so creating a or1ksim for this is a good first step. A maintainers file is a good idea. Preferrably with separate sections for the different products we store in the repo. We have the list of maintainers on the project page at opencores.org, but it doesn't really tell who does what -- Olof Kindgren ______________________________________________ ORSoC Website: www.orsoc.se Email: [email protected] ______________________________________________ FPGA, ASIC, DSP - embedded SoC design _______________________________________________ OpenRISC mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openrisc.net/listinfo/openrisc
