This was already done from my side:

Sorry Prafulla but I have admit that this whole discussion costs a lot of time
which I do not have. We are moving in circles your last comment was already
discussed several times e.g.:
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2012-June/126081.html

So again you have no specific inputs of improvements for 01-08 right? All you
rephrase are some general comments which are not very helpfull to improve our
situation and to get our own board code into mainline.

We try to stick to every rule which is valid for u-boot development. But we
can't stick to rules which are not clearly stated.

Regards
Holger
