We pull in small patch sets when relevant and useful. The problem with that is it makes it very hard to support with the amount of people. Sure it would be nice to support everything but it's not always possible. On the odriod side of things there's no reason why we don't support, in fact I've had some feedback that some of the odroid stuff works fine. Is it perfect, no, but when people report problems we work to fix them. _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
