It's the mainline, there are numerous other vendors that are contributing, there's NXP, ST, TI, plus numerous other volunteer contributors such as myself. The fact that Linaro is contributing a lot at the moment is irrelevant. Contributors to projects wax and wane depending on their own requirements. > It's mainline.

I was wondering what you were up to when you were replying with applied to messages for patches that were still under review. What it does not give you the right to do is to use the infrastructure, such as this mailing list, patchwork, CI and what ever else, of the project you're forking. You don't see the many hardware vendors that have forks of the project, which they are well within their rights to do, using the project infrastructure for their forks. There is nothing OK about what you are doing. The community has the right to know what you are doing purely because of the fact you are using the project's infrastructure. If you're going to fork it you have no requirements to notify if you go off and do it in your own area of the internet. Peter
