Hi David, Joern Rennecke is working with Atmel on the AVR tool chain. You'll see he has submitted quite a large number of AVR related patches in the last year. I've discussed with Atmel's teams in Trondheim and Chennai and they are very supportive of Joern Rennecke being added as a maintainer.

Eric Weddington On behalf of all avr gcc users, including the "winavr" project, let me offer you a big "thank you" for all your work on the port, and wish you luck in your life after Atmel. mvh., David

Maintainers can resign at any time. Mentoring and nominating new maintainers is appreciated. Note that maintainers are a personal appointment, not a company appointment, so job changes do not affect maintainership. You can apply the change to remove Anatoly's name. Someone should confirm with Eric Weddington that he wishes to resign. Thanks, David

I don't know if he still has time to work with AVRs, or if he would still be able to be a maintainer for the AVR port. But I am pretty sure that his new job will not involve AVR's significantly, so it would only be as a hobby (or at best, as a normal avr gcc user). Atmel includes gcc in their development tool (AVR Studio), as well as providing pre-built packages (for Windows and Linux) with the avr-libc library and related tools, using snapshots of mainline gcc with a few patches (for things like support of newer devices). So it seems reasonable to expect that they will be interested in the development and maintenance of the avr port of gcc even though Eric has now left them. If you would like, I can try to contact Atmel and ask if they have someone who would like to take Eric's seat as a port maintainer (or you could do so yourself from Atmel's website). mvh., David
Re: [AVR] remove two maintainers
As I am doing some work on avr, I would be available as an additional maintainer, if you and the steering committee agree.
[AVR] remove two maintainers
I would remove two maintainers for AVR port: 1. Anatoly Sokolov 2. Eric Weddington I have discussed the removal with Anatoly Sokolov and he is agree with it. I can't discuss the removal with Eric Weddington because his mail address invalid. Must somebody approve the removal ? (Or I can just apply it) Denis.
