Do you have some kind of To-Do-List? Otherwise I would get back to my other projects. Concerning the staging drivers, I miss some motivation to work on device drivers that I don't have the devices for. Therefor I was mainly focusing on the ad799x. So, by the way, which are currently the show-stoppers for the ad799x preventing a move out of staging? And, are there any plans to provide documentation about the supported IIO devices (similar to hwmon)?
