Makes good sense to be cautious and only target experimental. > Maybe nudging some people to get the patches upstream would be > feasible; a u-boot merge window opens in a couple weeks. Thanks for the suggestion. I will try get in touch with the people involved and encourage them to push (harder than they do already). > Do feel free to push to a "wip/teres-i" branch in the u-boot salsa; I > think that would make it easier for me to review. Changes pushed. Feel free to ping me as soon as 2019.04 is in somewhat usable state: I'll then try rebase the teres-i patches and if succesful then it would be awesome to have it included in an experimental release. Would it be interesting that I add wip/* branches for other potential packaging improvements I come up with, or would you prefer that I work on a separate git and only push to "your" git for after formally filing a bugreport and getting your approval for pushing it? - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
