If you are looking for maintainers, I will work on the PPC stuff. The
#ifdef situation has been out of control for quite some time. I did
attempt to consolidate the platform stuff. Some of this work did make
it into the kernel. Are you talking about 2.6? I was about to work on
the sysfs stuff which will go a long way to cleaning up the device
drivers.
BTW: the linuxppc-embedded list did not show in the reply list. Forward
this if you want.
