Hi Krzysztof,

I use a mini2440 (which is s3c2440) as an http server at home.
I don't have much time but I can do some testing from time to
time, but my setup is very custom so I don't know how helpful
that would be for the community (if there is one).

I would be sad to see official support disappear, but I know
how hard it is to maintain stuff, and I think I can keep going
with the current kernel I use (which is not even 5.xx I think),
so that would not be a big damage for me. And if I have special
needs in the future (very doubtful) I guess I could hack something
on my own.

Anyway, there is at least one s3c2440 server on Earth powered
by the linux kernel. Now you know! :)

Regards,
Cédric.
