Linus, wouldn't the upcoming 3.0 kernel release be a wonderful reason to merge a few more kernel-related utilities into your tree? Especially one such project -- cpupowerutils -- which did ask to be merged one week ago, still well within the merge window, but tragically got lost amid all the discussions on how the next release shall be called?
