This is very sad and unfortunate for the U-Boot community. I'm really
sorry to hear this. But I can fully understand you and totally
respect your decision.

I would like to thank you for all your input and hard work that
you've done for this project in the last years. Your comments
have always been very productive and your dedicated involvement
has taken the sunxi U-Boot support to the next level and also
improved U-Boot in general.

Thanks again,
Stefan
