Hi Florian,

        As you seems very busy I'd like to propose the help you to handle the
        fbdev subsystem to easier the rich of the fbdev patch to Linus

        As I'm working on fbdev on at91 and others and already Co-Maintain the
        at91 mach on ARM

        And if you are not willing to continue I could take over

I've been collecting fbdev patches for the latest merge windows, so that
Linus doesn't get tons of small separate pull requests. But I haven't
been very proactive with that, and I don't think I have time to really
maintain fbdev.

Hi Tomi,

I really thank you for your previous efforts.
Actually, I thought that you're a good fit for fbdev.

So I'd also welcome somebody stepping up and taking taking on the
maintainership of fbdev.

Hi Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD,

I agree with Tomi's opinion.
If you take the maintainership of fbdev, it will be very helpful.


Best regards,
Jingoo Han

 Tomi

Ps. I already have a few patches for 3.10 and for 3.11. I'll send them
to you.
