I've been collecting fbdev patches for the latest merge windows, so that
Linus doesn't get tons of small separate pull requests. But I haven't
been very proactive with that, and I don't think I have time to really
maintain fbdev.

So I'd also welcome somebody stepping up and taking taking on the
maintainership of fbdev.

 Tomi

Ps. I already have a few patches for 3.10 and for 3.11. I'll send them
to you.
