Hi Tom,

thanks for the heads up, somehow the original email didn't reach me.

To be honest, I am more inclined to delete that whole file. Given its age
and the (natural and understandable) volatility of engagement for those
boards I don't think there is much actual information in there anymore than
"person originally submitted the *_defconfig" (which we have in the git
log).
For instance I think that Hans retreated from day-to-day sunxi
engagement years ago, and I wonder if he even still possesses all of these
boards listed under his name - which was more of a catch-all anyway, IIUC.

So it's either that (which is certainly easier), or I write to everyone on
the list and ask for an update on the support situation. Because I also
feel that only a small fraction of these boards receives some testing, so
wouldn't be surprised to find many of them broken for a while - given the
refactoring we did lately.

But please note that I don't intend to drop any of the defconfigs
unnecessarily, so just because we *believe* they are unsupported.

Any opinions?

Cheers,
Andre
