I have a few doubts regarding the patch submission process followed in u-boot. I hope the answers would be beneficial not just for me but for everyone I read the whole process on the website but what I understood from there and what is really followed seems to be different. After reading about the patch submission process, I felt that patches can only be sent when the merging window is open but patches are being continuously sent and reviewed. Is it correct to assume that a patch can be sent at any time and will only be applied to the mainline code during the merging window Please let me know. Thanks in advance Regards Vipin
