And not enough Seattles to go around for someone else to pick up the slack. I am aware not everyone is subscribed to linaro-acpi; we use that for internal review before posting more broadly, which is the only reason I sent them there. I'm in the middle of updating them as I have time, based on really good feedback from Arnd; few of them are terribly new (the very first posting was [0]) -- it's mostly a matter of rebasing, integrating updates from AMD and others, and reacting to the comments. One can also see what these patches will probably look like via one of the Fedora kernel trees [1].
