Good, thanks.

Do you really think that rules that *everyone* contributing to a project
has to follow to achieve goals like maintainability, readability and
changeability is "playing games"?  

I admit that the rules are checked pretty strictly in U-Boot, but the
rules as such are in my opinion pretty comparable to other projects....

I would really like to see Eran to get the patches into acceptable state
(should be not much work from what I can tell), but if this does not
happen, Markus can you pick up the patches and massage them into
acceptance?  In this way you'd get what you want and contribute to
U-Boot?  This would be very much appreciated...

Cheers
  Detlev
