1The following is a list of files and features that are going to be
2removed from the U-Boot source tree.  Every entry should contain what
3exactly is going away, when it will be gone, why it is being removed,
4and who is going to be doing the work.	When the feature is removed
5from U-Boot, its corresponding entry should also be removed from this
6file.

10What:	Users of the legacy miiphy_* code
11When:	undetermined
12
13Why:	We now have a PHY library, which allows everyone to share PHY
14	drivers. All new drivers should use this infrastructure, and
15	all old drivers should get converted to use it.
16
17Who:	Andy Fleming <afleming@freescale.com> and driver maintainers
18
19---------------------------
20
21What:	boards with xxx_config targets in top level Makefile
22When:	Release v2012.03
23
24Why:	We have a boards.cfg file which the vast majority of boards have
25	converted over to.  Boards that still manually run mkconfig in the
26	top level Makefile are either dead, or the maintainer doesn't care,
27	or they are doing something weird/wrong that should be fixed in a
28	different way, or they need to extend boards.cfg syntax (unlikely).
29
30	In any case, if no one cares about these boards to figure out how
31	to make boards.cfg work, then we'll just punt them.
32
33Who:	Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
34
35---------------------------
36
37What:	GPL cleanup
38When:	August 2009
39Why:	Over time, a couple of files have sneaked in into the U-Boot
40	source code that are either missing a valid GPL license
41	header or that carry a license that is incompatible with the
42	GPL.
43	Such files shall be removed from the U-Boot source tree.
44	See http://www.denx.de/wiki/pub/U-Boot/TaskGplCleanup/u-boot-1.1.2-files
45	for an old and probably incomplete list of such files.
