[Buildroot] Greetings

[Erik Winn]

Hi all,
 First I want to say to buildroot devs - you rock.  I haven't enjoyed
checking out a tool like I have today with buildroot in a long time; really
nice work - an extralarge Thank You!

 Second - I needed libdc1394 so I added a package (which was almost trivial
to do and part of what was so much fun today). And then thought - well,
that's probably a nice option to have .. so, where do I go from here? I
understand the parts about checking out git, patches, etc. - I just don't
know if there is a protocol for submitting a new package, ie. would I make
a proposal or is there discussion, package acceptance procedure, etc.?
There might be thoughts about dependancies but the patch itself is tiny -
almost identical to libraw1394.

Advice/guidance appreciated

Thanks much.
