Hi , Andy, thanks for pointing me in to the mailing list archive. I've updated the wiki page to include that info and a reference to your post. That's part of the info I was looking for, it might be a good idea to always copy&paste that kind of information into the wiki, or just provide a link to it in the future. (not to blame you at all, but unfortunately the word sysfs was not mentioned in it, else I would probably have found it earlier when searching the archives)
I really appreciate the efforts made by all of you, but to me, an outdated page is worse than no doc. And I also remember how a lot of people complained/ranted because there is/was no glamo doc available, just want to prevent happening this again for things which are under OM's control and possible to document.... And I'm ocnvinced that with very little (or virtual no) additional effort (like auto-generated changelogs) the existing information can be made more accessible to all people trying to contribute. I also understand that .28 is not yet adopted by any official distro, but if I was just trying to use any of the official distro's I probably wouldn't need this info. I'm trying to roll my own stuff (one of those is debian based, .28 kernel and QtExtended on top, but possibility to switch to X and back to QtE ; another one is application specific/vertical market). thanks again for all the efforts, and keep up the good work. cheers, Filip.
