It could be treated the same way the git project treats gitk and git-gui. The sources are still included in the main project and distributed along with the rest of it but they are merged from an external upstream where the real development happens. The upstream project is also free to make releases on whatever schedule they determine (although these days there isn't much development going on in for gitk/git-gui). _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
