Shawn is no longer interested in maintaining i.MX platform, and would like
to step down. On the other hand, Frank seems to be the best successor
for this role.
- He has been one of the most outstanding contributors to i.MX platform
in the recent years.
- He has been actively working as a co-maintainer reviewing i.MX
patches and keep the platform support in good shape.
- He works for NXP and could be the bridge and coordinator between
NXP internal developers and community contributors.

Thanks, Shawn, for your great work maintaining i.MX platform support. I’ve
learned a lot from you, and I’m happy to continue maintaining the i.MX
platform.
