Hi Andrew,

 From Microchip side, we haven't stopped/postponed this framework 
development. We are already working on it. It is in the final stage now. 
We are doing internal reviews right now and we expect that in 3 weeks 
time frame in the mainline again. We will send a new version (v3) of 
this patch series soon.
Hi Parthiban

It is good to here you are still working on it.

A have a few comments about how Linux mainline works. It tends to be
very iterative. Cycles tend to be fast. You will probably get review
comments within a couple of days of posting code. You often see
developers posting a new version within a few days, maybe a week. If
reviewers have asked for large changes, it can take longer, but
general, the cycles are short.

When you say you need three weeks for internal review, that to me
seems very slow. Is it so hard to get access to internal reviewers? Do
you have a very formal review process? More waterfall than iterative
development? I would suggest you try to keep your internal reviews
fast and low overhead, because you will be doing it lots of times as
we iterate the framework.
