Hi,

I followed that discussion and I like very much the biding that Benoit
is proposing. It will help me a lot with my current work on Atmel DMA
controller.

If I understand correctly, some rework is needed before it can be
integrated in a stable git tree (I mean before we can base our work on
top of it). So, in the meantime, what should I do to help and make
things go forward? to be quite frank, I would be interested to have a
working DMA enabled device soon ;-)
Do you think that 3.4 is out of reach?

Best regards,
