I maintain the MediaTek DSA subdriver and some devicetree bindings and source files for MediaTek hardware. I am especially interested in the best practices of maintaining dt-bindings and DT source files. There's this false impression with some maintainers that, as the dt-bindings and the DT source files are being hosted on the Linux repository, Linux drivers have influence over the design of bindings or fixing DT source files that did not comply with the bindings. I'd be very interested to be involved in or kick start the efforts to take dt-bindings and DT source files out of the Linux repository into its own, separate repository. I believe, this would be a great step in addressing all the project-dependent bindings of Linux, U-Boot, OpenWrt, and all other projects, to have a single, unified repository to describe all the hardware that exists in the world. I am already working towards this goal by improving the dt-bindings and DT source files on the Linux repository whenever I can. I must be quite late to make a topic suggestion but I'd be very happy to be able to attend to the maintainers summit. I've already registered for the Linux Plumbers Conference 2024. Arınç
