Hi Supriya and Zaheer,

Great to hear that you are willing to upstream your driver.

There is no need to discuss this in any meeting, although you are welcome to
attend both meetings (both are open to public). All you need to do is send your
patches to the dev mailing list.

As Stephen highlighted, the new features are added to the regular releases, not
to the stable trees, so first thing you need to do is backport it to the regular
release.
We are about to close the v21.05, so next release can be v21.08.


It would be nice if you can send your roadmap update for v21.08, you can find
multiple samples in the mail list, to indicate your intention to add your driver
for v21.08.

And please check the contribution guide documentation, it should have enough
details on how to contribute, expected coding conventions and checks etc..

Thanks,
ferruh
