I think this will be better master ARM repository : Jean-Christophe Plagniol-Villard Freescale (i.MX) Magnus Lilja? Or are there any volunteers at Freescale? Marvell Prafulla Wadaskar Samsung (s3c, s5pc): Are there any volunteers at Samsung? Texas Instruments (OMAP): Tom Rix Best Regards, J. _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
