There's no reason to use a specific U-Boot version, given
we are using upstream. Leave the default version get selected.

No, that's not our policy. Our policy is to use a fixed version (even
if an upstream one) to make sure that people using the defconfig in the
future will have a known-working version.

That may be my fault: we've discussed this with Ezequiel on IRC, and
from what I understood, it looked he was askign why we were not using an
upstream version.

So, I replied that we can use upstream, of course, if upstream has the
necessary support.

Maybe I was not clear enough: we can use upstream, but a fixed version,
of course.

If 2013.10 is too old, you can bump (e.g. to 2015.10 or whatever, even a
sha1 from the git tree if necessary). But that should be a fixed
version, indeed.

Sorry for the confusion... :-/

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.

No problem, no need for apologies :-)
