Dear Gupta,

Isn't there any communication going on within Freesale? Doesn't the
left hand know what the right hand is doing? Aren't you guys talking
to each other? 

And, most of all, don't you read the mailing list, or scan the
archives before posting?

On Monday, Poonam Aggrwal asked about this before, and again two days
later; see
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/69680

Yesterday Mingkai Hu asked me the same again in private communication.

And now you ask again.


Guys, please note: It makes no sense to wait for a -rc for any
Freescale releases. IT MAKES NO SENSE. Please see my reply at
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/69680
for an explanation.

And one more thing: rc's happen when they are ready, not earlier.
We will even shift release dates without hesitating a second when
there is still work that needs to be done.


All this release planning is meant to give some orientation, but it
is no guaranteed deadlines with penalty clauses attached.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
