Right, although it's out there - but I'd like to get the AMBA changes into it which are already conflicting the Samsung development. So I'm going to hold off officially asking for people to include the baseline until this evening. At that point, I will shut down my 'amba' branch and transfer that over; that means I won't be accepting any further acks etc for that work. If you haven't acked changes in the amba branch (eg, to Versatile, Realview etc) then it'll soon be too late... -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
