You showed me in a long mail that it's enough of contribution if the string 'Linux' shows up in the commit log and now you want me to reference particular commits? That's cool. Anyway, I don't want to run further into your barebox-sucks-from-the-community argumentation. Jean-Christophe, I just reverted the offending commits. Can you please update the patches to contain credits to U-Boot and Marian Balakowicz?
