Cool. Could you give the same info on the MTD maillist please. Some
people asked recently.

FYI, we have integrated the DOC devices into the generic nand driver. We
can run JFFS2 on them - and (I)NFTL of course. If somebody is interested
it should be quite simple to make YAFFS work on DOC. Either a matching
oob layout define is neccecary and some magic in the YAFFS code to
select it or you could modify YAFFS to use the automatic OOB data
placement, which is the preffered way now.
