I will take care of this.

I will resolve this.

I have to remove this encoder and decoder nodes. Other team is working on that. They will extend this once they are done with encoder and decoder.

I will take care of this.

Based on the discussion in the misc/drivers forum, I will remove this encoder and decoder node which is of some other team working on. They will extend this once they are done with there work.
