[Gta04-owner] [ANN]: decided to start production for GTA04A5 boards

[Moritz Schilling]

Hi there,

I was wondering about the status of the GTA04A5 boards. Are there any news?
I am really sad, that i cannot participate in the development because of my
old GTA0402 board. Would love to try out new kernels :)

All the best,

Moritz
