We are aligned: for Maverick, unfortunately OMAP4 support will have to be in a branch because of the pile of patches that is still on top of the mainline.

Regarding OMAP4 rebase on .35, it's too early for me to comment. We are committed to do it, so it shall be available a few days or short weeks after the .35, but difficult to be more precise by now.
