I am still tearing my hair out waiting for the reserved-memory and binman patches to be accepted. Every few weeks there is another comment, but no action. Rob seems to be the only one engaged. Perhaps I should do a conference talk about what is wrong with DT? This is my experience so far: - there is no urgency to apply anything - no one wins acclaim for applying a patch - everyone complains later if a patch is applied that they didn't agree with - people chime in wanting to understand the use case, but don't/can't/won't - any sort of expressed doubt results in delay - maintainers hope that the submitter will lose interest and go away - not enough people add review tags, even if they look at it ... because they are worried about looking bad to others on the ML I would be happy to discuss how to improve matters, but that is what I see. Anyway, the lowest-hanging fruit at present is the U-Boot /options stuff. I was hoping someone else would step up to clean it up. There should be no impediment. Regards, Simon
