</div>Great. Welcome, Pranav!<br>

</div>Try get in touch with the wiki admins e-g- over irc, as documented at<br>
the team page referenced from the bottom of every wiki page.<br>

<br>
</div>Interesting. But to be honest I have no interest in the actual image<br>
you produced - what I find interesting is the choices you made in<br>
producing it: Better if you share source - i.e. the scripts (or other<br>
procedures) you used to produce the image.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>The github link which I shared has the detailed procedure. There is no script. I don't feel there is a need too, correct me if I'm wrong. The reason is, U-boot and filesystem we make only once. We change the Kernel, that too, only once. <br>

<br>
</div>Good question. There are lots of ways to produce an image, each with<br>
benefits and limitations - including large variety in the quality of<br>
documentation. So it really depends on your choice of tool - or if you<br>
approach it from the other end, it depends on your criteria for the<br>
image and production style of it.<br>

<br>
</div>No. The wiki predates those formats and even though plugins exist to<br>
switch on individual wiki pages, I recommend to "do as the romans":<br>

Nice if they share results of what they do, but even better if they are<br>
comfortable sharing progress as they move along and work in ways<br>
allowing others to collaborate more directly. Just suggesting :-)<br>
