I gave you comments, or at least Marke should have got them for the
series sent in November, then there's nothing in my mailbox since
then.

Ok, here's the list:

1) SystemLSI are the best placed to see all the chips in development,
   since they're the ones making them. You are only dealing with a
   subset of their output (generally the S5PC100 and S5PC110) whereas
   there are many more devices in the line.

2) SystemLSI have spent time talking to me about what they need to do
   when maintaining a system and trying to acquire the necessary skills
   for managing a port.

This does not mean that you cannot be included at a later date.

As a note, that I have left myself in the maintainers entries for the
samsung series and will re-visit this once we see how well the transfer
goes in the next kernel release or two.
