I know Bartlomiej is here for a long time, but fbdev?? I know no one can replace Tomi here. With full respect to Bartlomiej, my personal opinion - I will prefer to have someone as the maintainer who has worked with framebuffer devices before. regards sudip -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fbdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

I'm not a fbdev expert and I'm not pretending to be one. I decided to officially handle patches for fbdev after this subsystem has been marked as Orphan in upstream tree (nobody has volunteered to take over from Tomi after he sent his resignation patch to a list a week earlier). I won't have a lot of time even for this activity so help is very much welcomed.

Sorry for the noise. I have two months of lkml and fbdev mails pending, will read them in next two weeks of holidays. Only managed to see few mails that had me in to or cc. > > I won't have a lot of time even for this activity so help is > very much welcomed. time is the only thing which is very scarce nowadays. but please do ping me if you need any help. regards sudip -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fbdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

I would like to help with fbdev maintenance. I can dedicate some time for reviewing and handling patches but won't have time for much more. The subsystem will remain in maintenance mode (no new drivers will be added to it).
