Hi all,
For those of you who are working, or are soon-to-be working, on device tree support for ARM, I'm organizing a regular weekly status update and a hacking day for getting device tree support added to several of the ARM platforms. I've already talked to some of you about this briefly. Basically the idea is to have a day when all of us working on dt can coordinate and get problems solved. I'll commit to being available and focused on answering dt questions for that day so it should be easier to get my help. I'll also put together some documents and guides for dt bringup on new platforms which will break down the features that each platform needs to implement.
For the status update part, rather than scheduling yet another meeting, I think it would be appropriate to tack it onto the end of the Monday kernel working group status update call. I'll dial into both the west (1600UTC) and east (0400UTC-tuesday) calls so that I've got a chance to talk with everyone.. Let me know if you don't have the dial-in details for either of the calls and I'll ask Paul or Loic to add you to the invite.
For the hacking day, how does Tuesday(west)/Wednesday(east) sound for everyone? I'll be available on IRC, and I'll also keep my schedule clear so that I'll be available for phone calls.
Right now, here's the list of people that I know are or may be working on DT support, and the platform they are working on (not exclusively Linaro work):
Lennert Buytenhek (Core infrastructure& omap3) Thomas Abraham (Samsung) John Bonesio (nVidia Tegra) Shawn Guo and Jason Hui (Freescale imx51) Jon Masters (omap3, beagle board)
Anybody else want me to add them to this list?
Rob Herring (Calxeda)
I can help out on testing and continue providing any fixes I find.
