Final days for some Arm platforms

Arnd Bergmann stirred up a bit of a discussion with his January 8 "bringout your dead" posting, wherein he raised the idea of removing supportfor a long list of seemingly unloved Arm platforms - and a few non-Arm onesas well. Many of these have seen no significant work in at least sixyears. In aJanuary 13 followup, he notes that several of those platforms willbe spared for now due to ongoing interest. Several others, though (efm32,picoxcell, prima2, tango, u300, and zx) remain on the chopping block, andthe status of another handful remains uncertain. Readers who care aboutold Arm platforms may want to have a look at the list now and speak up ifthey still need support for one of the platforms that might otherwise bedeleted.
