[U-Boot] Patchwork question

Dear Anton Staaf,

Both :-)

Both :-)

The thing is, Patchwork has a number of shortcomings, and a number of
bugs.  Some patches get mis-identified, so earlier submissions
(already marked as superseded) will set to "accepted", while the
latest versions remain in state "new".  Manual cleanup is needed then.

Every help with this is more than welcome.

Ditto for assigning patches to custoians (and don;t be afraid to guess
wrong - if one custodian feels a patch is not for his plate, he can
easily re-assign it).  Better a wrong assignment than none [um...
unless you assign them incorrectly to myself ;-) ]

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
