+The following is a list of files and features that are going to be
+removed from the U-Boot source tree. Every entry should contain what
+exactly is going away, when it will be gone, why it is being removed,
+and who is going to be doing the work. When the feature is removed
+from U-Boot, its corresponding entry should also be removed from this
+file.
+
+---------------------------
+
+What: Users of the legacy miiphy_* code
+When: undetermined
+
+Why: We now have a PHY library, which allows everyone to share PHY
+ drivers. All new drivers should use this infrastructure, and
+ all old drivers should get converted to use it.
+
+Who: Andy Fleming <afleming@gmail.com> and driver maintainers
+
+---------------------------
+
+What: GPL cleanup
+When: August 2009
+Why: Over time, a couple of files have sneaked in into the U-Boot
+ source code that are either missing a valid GPL license
+ header or that carry a license that is incompatible with the
+ GPL.
+ Such files shall be removed from the U-Boot source tree.
+ See http://www.denx.de/wiki/pub/U-Boot/TaskGplCleanup/u-boot-1.1.2-files
+ for an old and probably incomplete list of such files.
+
+Who: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de> and board maintainers
