I actually rather volunteered to help out with testing as I seemed to have access to a good collection of mpx83xxx based reference boards. I only took maintainership of mpc837xerdb recently after we moved with generic board support. I feel there might be some others with higher level of contributions and related experience and might be interested in the custodianship. I am cc'ing to Dirk as well as I know he had worked on mpc83xx code quite a bit. Let's see if there is any other volunteers first. Regards Sinan Akman
