Quite frankly,
This whole thing came as a huge-huge surprise to us, we did not initiate
upstreaming of exfat/sdfat code and, as of this moment, I'm not exactly
sure that we are prepared for any immediate radical changes to our internal
development process which people all of a sudden want from us. I need to
discuss with related people on internal thread.
please wait a while:)

Thanks!
