Re: [PATCH 1/1] staging/stlc45xx: Fix compile error

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If you agree I could take the task to mantain stlc45xx. I have the
time, the motivation and I think the skills to do it.

At least I could make it compile when the API changes and work on bugs
reported until you are confident that p54spi driver is good enough and
there is no need anymore for stlc45xx.

The only thing I dont have it is the hardware but I think I could get one N800.

Best regards,
