[U-Boot] USB custodianship

[U-Boot] USB custodianship

[Markus Klotzbücher]

Dear List,

I've been maintaining the USB Layer in "bugfix mode" for some time now,
but this piece of code really needs much more attention. There are
definitely some brownie points to earn here: cleanup, increase of
robustness, EHCI,... Unfortunately attention takes time, and I don't
have much of that these days.

I would therefore like to propse Remy Bohmer as a new USB
custodian. Remy has done an excellent job in fixing bugs, doing
cleanup and working with others to achieve this. I believe he is the
right person for this job and will be able to work more effectively
without suffering from my latencies.

What does the community think?

Best regards
Markus Klotzbuecher

I know this all too good myself as well. :)

I would welcome such a change. Markus, thanks for the time you put into this 
so far. And welcome to Remy in the custodian team.

Best regards,

The most important questions is of course: what does Remy think?

Remy, is this OK with you?

Best regards,

Hello Wolfgang,

Yes, of course :-)

For me this custiodianship is new and looks interesting, and I have
enough time to do this.
I also have some more (USB) ideas here that I had planned to do, so I
will keep on working on it for quite some time from here.
Markus polled my interest before proposing this message to the
community. So, I was not surprised by this and I was also waiting for
reactions from the community.

Kind Regards,

Remy

Fine. Thnaks a lot.

I think I updated all relevant places in the web pages  and  the  git
repo.

Please send me your public ssh key so you can push into the git repo.
