I was curious when the last substantive patch was. I think it was 2015: commit a9889169e5b21efb8c42105fc62461be43968d64 Author: Aleksandar Ristovski Date: Wed Oct 21 10:37:33 2015 -0400 [nto] Fix nto target stopped by watchpoint. Aleksandar is still listed in MAINTAINERS, so maybe we ought to try to contact him before going forward? MAINTAINERS has a lot of obsolete entries. So probably this doesn't mean much. Still, I guess it wouldn't hurt to wait a week or two, unless this is blocking some other work. To be clear, I'm in favor of removing things like this, particularly unmaintained targets and nat- code, as those are more difficult to test or even compile. Tom
