At least I would expect that the code be frozen (patches declined but
existing code kept), not removed.
As far as I am concerned, network and to a lesser extent USB (YMMV, of
course) are very useful features and dropping them would be a great loss
for U-Boot.
Plus, I am currently working on code that relates to Ethernet. :)
Amicalement,
