Hi,

Thank you Angelo for supporting Matthias here. I also have no information why his tree is stale for more than 2 months and also got no response on direct contact. I hope he is still ok and do only need some free time.

I waiting for these to be merged:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-mediatek/list/?series=761293   https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-mediatek/list/?series=777712

Do you have created an own tree from matthias' one or can you directly work on it? If working on own tree please send me the link,so that i can track when changes (also from others) are merged.
regards Frank
