hi Kun-Yi,

感謝提供資訊，大約在去年底我就參考過這些更動 (review)，不過就 qemu[1] 目前的開發方向來說，還不傾向整合，所以 PXA27x-
Linux[2] 還是會維護一份修改過的 qemu，並加入 Palm 與 SmartPhone 硬體的模擬。

著手採用 svk[3] 來進行分散式版本控制管理，這樣可確保與 qemu 官方版本同步，也就是所謂的 pull 與 merge 的動作。但因
為 qemu 採用 svk 所不擅長處理的 CVS repository，一直到現在我尚未成功 merge codebase。

當然維護 patch 真的頗複雜，特別是 hw/ (emulated hardware/peripherals) 追加了許多修改的今日，看來還
是得想辦法搞定 svk 與 qemu 才行。

Dear all,

這系列的 patches 已經部份 check-in 到 CVS 了，pxa2xx_ 的週邊模擬也納入 qemu 官方支援，恭喜
Andrzej Zaborow 成為 cvs committer :-)

不過現在的 hw model 只有 spitz，這點我們可來改進。
