Hi all,

I have a question about staging driver. I'm a newbie kernel developer and I tried contributed some patches for staging drivers. In those staging drivers, I'm interested in pi433 and wrote some patches for it about 2 years ago. and then I tried to go deeper for that. I tried to buy pi433 device but I can't. It seems that no longer available.

In this case, pi433 should be removed from source tree?

Why would it be removed if people still use it?

If not, It's okay to send patches for it?

Please do! thanks, greg k-h
