I have released version 0.21-20080629 of thinkpad-acpi through the
sourceforge.net release system.

Patches are available for 2.6.23, 2.6.24, 2.6.25 and 2.6.26-rc8 at:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=117042&package_id=230205

git users can get it directly from tags in:
git://repo.or.cz/linux-2.6/linux-acpi-2.6/ibm-acpi-2.6.git

0.21 is likely to be the last thinkpad-acpi release for the 2.6.23 kernel,
I will remain releasing for 2.6.23 while I stabilize it, but now that most
of the code has been accepted upstream, the end of 2.6.23 support is really
near.

This release includes support for the rfkill subsystem in thinkpad-acpi,
which I hope to get merged in mainline for 2.6.27.

It also includes a full backport of rfkill changes and enhancements that are
going to be merged for 2.6.27, without which thinkpad-acpi cannot support
the kernel rfkill subsystem.

Please test.  And please be advised that since it is rfkill that now
controls the state of the thinkpad radios, you may observe some changes in
behaviour.  The most "alarming" one might be bluetooth and WWAN radios
getting enabled by default.  To avoid that, give the rfkill module the
"default_state=0" parameter.
