That's quite a weird approach. You find a bug in their codebase, but they won't merge the fix because of the discussion unrelated to the issue you fixed. To be honest, I see this as an argument for the independence of 3rd part repositories we can't (at least partially) control.

Hi all,

Just to bring this to your attention: on my recent PR to esp-hal-3rdparty,
an Espressif employee commented stating that support is paused until the
ongoing governance discussions are resolved.

Best regards,

Hi all,

Following the recent discussion in the thread “Early feedback on RZ/V2H
port and RZ FSP HAL dependency”, I would like to suggest applying the same
idea discussed there to existing vendor HAL dependencies: hosting them
under github.com/NuttX, while keeping them separate from the ASF
repositories. This proposal is aligned with some opinions shared there.

A practical example is esp-hal-3rdparty. I recently opened a very small
fix there:

https://github.com/espressif/esp-hal-3rdparty/pull/15

The PR is still open without Espressif review. Interestingly, the
technical feedback so far came from Laczen, a NuttX contributor who is not
part of Espressif.

This illustrates the issue when NuttX depends on a vendor repository but
the vendor is temporarily unavailable to maintain or review it.

Would it make sense to move esp-hal-3rdparty, and potentially similar
vendor HAL repositories, under github.com/NuttX, with vendor maintainers
when available but NuttX committers retaining the ability to review and
maintain them when necessary?

Best regards,
