[U-Boot] A little introduction

[Henrik Nordström]

A little introduction to let you know who I am and why I am here.

I am maintaining u-boot support for Allwinner A1x class CPUs, and ARM
Cortex A8 class SoC by chineese Allwinner Tech.

To be honest I am not guilty to much of the code. The bulk of the A10
support was kindly donated by Allwinner via Tom Cubie, including a SPL
support enabling the A10 boot rom to boot u-boot dir4ectly from sd
cards. So far for th A10 I have mostly managed to produce failed ports
to later u-boot versions where SPL crashes and cleaned things up a
little.

For the last couple of months I have been staring at A13, the newer
little brother of A10, trying to get SPL to work there and now finally I
have got the pieces together and we have a working (but not optimal) SPL
for A13.

Also involved in the free kernel development for Allwinner A1x class
SoCs and other supporting tools for the SoC family.

Outside u-boot I am the proud father of 6 wonderful kids, president of
the Squid Software Foundation, and an independent IT consultant focusing
on Linux & networking.

Been hacking on computers for more than 3 decades, ranging from demo
programming, game development, web interfaces, application level
proxies, kernel drivers, and now back to bare metal in u-boot.

My work on u-boot is done by interest in both the SoCs in question and
bare metal development, and plan to continue looking after this class of
SoCs for quite some time.
