Yes.  I didn't have the time to prepare a release yet, though.  But it has
not been merged upstream yet, so I will also wait for the merge first.

I am NOT happy with the FN-F6 mapping to KEY-CAMERA, but since we don't have
a "thinksuite" or anything of the sort that would act as camera/headphone...

The rest of the stuff only matters if you have a new thinkpad that is not
working right with the driver, and you didn't send me a bug report about it
yet :p

It will also matter if you like to use thinkpad-acpi to control brightness,
and you have a lenovo box.  In that case, you will now have to tell the
kernel that you want "vendor" brightness control, you cannot have both
active at the same time anymore.
