Paul Cercueil also has interest about it. That's so cool.
As a suggestion, I think that we can have a maintainers team:
Option1: Paul Cercueil/Thomas Bogendoerfer/Jiaxun Yang Option2: Thomas Bogendoerfer/Paul Cercueil/Jiaxun Yang
any idea?
background: 1. PaulC works lots for Ingenic support. 2. Thomas works lots for some SGI IP and some other hardware 3. Jiaxun works lots for Loongson hardware.
