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. Signed-off-by: Shawn Guo <shawnguo@kernel.org>
Really appreciate your outstanding contributions as an i.MX maintainer over the past 15 years. Acked-by: Dong Aisheng <aisheng.dong@nxp.com> Regards Aisheng
