omap1510inn/arm925t: maintain or remove?
Hello all,
(cc: list includes people involved in omap1510inn such as last known maintainer and a few "recent" contributors to it)
Board omap1510inn is marked orphaned.
It is also the last and only arm925t board not to have been removed from boards.cfg.
As far as I can tell, this board has only undergone batch changes actually sweeping over a lot of boards since around june 2011. Its last specific change (56ccd36fa) was a build fix.
In other words, there hasn't been any activity on it for years.
It also has an ugly trick in start.S where an image header signature byte is actually hard-coded in the assembler instructions.
Should I try and clean this within my start.S commonalization effort (first submission tonight, BTW) and move the signature generation in ./Makefile as a new image rule, or should I simply remove omap1510inn as well as the whole arm295t support?
My own vote goes for removing; anyone wishing to resurrect the board can do it from some commit before removal.
Amicalement,

My vote goes for removal, too. This is stuff which has long reached EOL.

I have one OMAP1510 board running U-Boot 1.1.3 (Palm Tungsten|T), but I dont think I will ever touch it again, so my vote goes for removal too.
