The rough process is: * people reply to your email with review comments; when you've accumulated enough you send out a fixed set of patches for further review * if nobody replies at all within say 2 weeks you can send out a 'ping' followup to this coverletter to bring the set back to peoples' attention http://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch is where we try to describe how the process works. In this particular case, I have tagged your mail in my mail client as 'must-review'; however since my review queue is currently pretty full (you're one of four new ARM board/soc support patchsets, the others being Allwinner A10, Canon DIGIC and RaspberryPi; then there's the TrustZone support patchset and all the 64 bit support work) I'm afraid I can't currently promise a particularly rapid turnaround time. If you can find the mail threads relating to the other recent board/soc support patchsets I listed above and look through review comments to see if any of them would apply to your board that would probably help. thanks -- PMM
