Again, I don't have a clue what it is you work on, although I just found out (from the other thread you started) that it involves a Fujitsu not-quite-96board that shares IP with the SynQuacer SoC? It was my understanding (from information I received from Socionext) that any upstreaming efforts involving that SoC had been discarded. I guess the Socionext and Fujitsu engineers are not talking to each other either. > Quod erat demonstrandum. Mathematical proof usually involves inferring new facts from existing facts. You have done nothing of the kind, and I am not sure what you are so angry about, but I think it would be better to leave the emotions out of it, and try to remain factual. Especially when it comes to representing other people's statements. -- Ard. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
