Regarding GSOC 2016 BBB Mentor

[Marcos Díaz]

Hi, here at Taller we developed some patches for the BBB bsp.
The idea of the bootloader is good, in order to not depend anymore on
U-Boot.
Other possible drivers are I2c, pwm and maybe others. We have I2c working
on RTEMS, but using TI StarterWare drivers. you should port them to the
RTEMS bsp.
So, either me or Martin Galvan offer to be your mentor / co-mentor. I also
think that BenGras can be very helpful for this BSP.
Greetings.
