New platforms
Hi,
I have a port of linux-mips to the Lasat (later Eicon) platform(s) -
based on vr4300, vr5000 and vr4120 chips. I would very much like to have the code incorporated in the CVS at OSS. How do I go about this?

Usually by splitting your patches into small chunks (one patch for one feature) and submitting them to Ralf Baechle ([email protected]) and/or to this list.

Please at a look at the Linux MIPS project at sourceforge. We already have several VR chipsets supported.

The Eicons are not anything really embedded rather than Cobalt RaQ like.

PS: I dont like this split up tree - Currently Ralf is the one feeding mainstream so please stop this diversification of the trees as the normal user gets completely confused which makes linux mips a VERY BAD target and does not help any popularity for the mips targets. We had the linux-vr desaster before which helped nothing but in the end bound developer efforts which were useless in the end.

True. The problem is the slow migration to Linus tree and the slow migration into the OSS tree. Here is a suggestion, how about using the BK tree at bkbits.net. There is a mips tree there but it has never been used. The question is who is the admin of that tree so we can have access ?

You can always pos your patches to the list, and whatever didn't make it into the tree, can be picked up from there by interested parties.

Now that I have time I plan to do that.

No. I'm talking about having a BK tree to use to sync up to Linus with. This way the OSS and SF tree and push into the BK tree and have no issues.

I dont know how others feel which would need to work more with this but i don't like BK's license (and its advocat Larry 'need to earn money' McVoy).
Forcing people into creating seperate trees due to licensing issues of the SCCS is not really something we need now.

Bitkeeper is evil non free software i will hopfully never be required to use.
If the migration is to slow help Ralf - Ralf is handing out CVS access to those he trusts developing in the correct direction. I also think that there are ways to split up feeding back the stuff. Generating one another tree wont help a lot.
