I thought about renaming the tool(s) as well. But decided against it.
Mostly because of historical reasons. This name for the tools has been
around for quite some time. And is documented in many README / HOWTO
files on the web. That's why I chose to not change it, at least for now.

That would be great. Thanks. Please keep me informed.

Note that I only merged some of the Kirkwood U-Boot code with the Armada
XP code. More work could be done here. And Dove definitely can be
squashed into this now common MVEBU infrastructure as well. Patches as
always very welcome (after this patchset is accepted as a basis). ;)

Sure. I just uploaded a branch "marvell-armada-xp-2014-06-27" to the
u-boot-testing git repository:

Thanks,
