Firstly, thank you for taking the time to contribute a patch for eCos.
Unfortunately, patch review can take some time. The eCos maintainers
which are best placed to review your changes may be busy. I would
suggest that you re-post your changes to the ecos-patches list in the
form of a plain text attachment (generated using "diff -U5 -r") rather
than as an EPK file. This will make it much easier for individual
maintainers to review your changes at a glance.
