Yes. This is my sole concern. Though we are all very busy, it is
importance to have timely response to the community.

Yes, I agree. Scott did a good job. Please keep on.

Yes, it is good.
I think a custodian should also response early to patches with global
changes like that of arch dir move and root Makefile cleanup.

I have two more mmc patches waiting for Andy's review,
05/03 [PATCH 1/3] lib: add crc7 from Linux
05/19 [PATCH 3/3 v8] mmc: add generic mmc spi driver
Once they get merged, I will update the nios wiki to use u-boot mainline
instead of our local branch. Beside, we are going to add fdt to nios2
linux, we will need your grand support.
Thank you very much for your attention. Thanks to Scott, too.
Best regards,
Thomas
