Dear Becky,

When I started with the MAKEALL script my idea was to have (at least)
all "typical" configurations represented to cover as many as possible
of the feature set.  By now the number of features and possible
combinations of these have reached a complexity that we eventually
should build just all targets: 10 or 20 more or less - who cares?

One of the ideas I have in mind with my Makefile rework is to make
board configurations completely table driven, with one line entry per
board configuration. The MAKEALL script would then pick the relevant
boards from this database - all of them (that match certain selection
criteria, like CPU type, or more, if possible).

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
