Yes, the point is that several people got interested in adding to the driver SPI and I?C support last time I submitted the driver. I did my best to concentrate the ACPI stuff only to some 3 or 4 small functions, so that it can be be easily done. > > What are the next plans... lm_sensors is listed as orphan in > MAINTAINERS, so I guess I'll clean it up a tiny bit then submit to akpm? Yes I've hold things up because I can't get the free-fall detection working correctly on my laptop. However here is the merge window (not that it matters that much with new drivers), free-fall is "just" not always detected, and there are lots of people who have showed interest in the driver. Fixing the last small things can be done once in Linus' tree as well! I've got already a changelog ready. Give me a couple of days to clean things up and I'll send it to akpm myself :-) See you, Eric
