> 2) Full sun8i (A23) support including DRAM controller init and SPL, so now
>    people can boot these boards using a full FOSS solution
> 3) Many improvement to the graphical console support, automatic selection

>    VGA output support
> 4) Preparation work for OTG controller support, together with 3) this allows

An initial build of 2015.04rc3 will be in rawhide tomorrow, so please
test, I've enabled a few extra new devices and I'll be reviewing the
rest of the new devices over the next week or so.

Please test, once it's settled down and we're fairly certain all the
usual suspects haven't regressed we'll move it into F-22 before beta
starts to get locked down.
