Re: Questions about contributing new port

Hi Joel and Sergio,

Thank you for your quick reply :)

Yes, we've signed FSF agreement years ago.
And the first question I asked is about
if we want our port included in GDB-7.7,
then we should hurry up and send them before 7.7 branch created.
Am I right?

Thanks.
