Could I ping on the issue described below?

Bob can no longer maintain the Xtensa port for GCC, and I don't think he 
is even reading the GCC mailing list any more. For the forseeable 
future, I am responsible for the Xtensa port of GCC here at Tensilica.

What should I do to move the process forward?

Thanks,

Sterling
