Thank you for your encouraging words and for the trust! As a tester I will
be very pleased to give an help on this hardware but as a maintainer I
could contribute little to nothing at the moment and I'm not being hard
with myself but currently I really have to focus on the basic concepts first
and I'm lucky enought to have willing people helping me to do so :-)

Accepting to become the maintainer after the first contribution let me feels
like I'm burning some foundamental stage. I really hope you understand!
