Shawn is no longer interested in maintaining i.MX platform, and would like to step down. On the other hand, Frank seems to be the best successor for this role. - He has been one of the most outstanding contributors to i.MX platform in the recent years. - He has been actively working as a co-maintainer reviewing i.MX patches and keep the platform support in good shape. - He works for NXP and could be the bridge and coordinator between NXP internal developers and community contributors.

Thanks Shawn for your tremendous work over the years and much success to Frank in his new maintainership! Cheers, Ahmad
