I'm sorry. I think I made you misunderstand my request.

I have a release notes to write. and I need to write the right version 
on documentation.

If you plan to change the u-boot version for dora at some point, I 
prefer to write the changed version on documents right now, or leave me 
a note someplace for pay attention on this u-boot provider later and 
change the docs in-time.

If there is no plan to change the u-boot-boundary version for Dora, I 
will consider u-boot.rst done for review only.
