I'm certainly interested in fixes and improvements being contributed back to QEMU mainline. In general people tend to find that maintaining boards and bugfixes out of tree is more expensive (in time and maintenance effort) than they first expect -- it can make it pretty tricky to update to new versions of QEMU. In the long run it often works out better to pay the up front cost of getting the code through our review process, because once you've done that it's done forever... If you have some fixes you think should be in mainline the first step is to send patches to us. -- PMM
