cool. i was going to mention the date change thing can be done via timerfd on
linux :)

you don't have commit access? eh? of course you do! :) or you mean you can't
commit right now due to network or whatever issues?

my comment is on low mem/batttery events. as per my other mails. i think these
are better renamed POWER_STATE and MEMORY_STATE ... along with all the getters
and setters - make power state an enum and memory state too. :) memory state
for now can just be NORMAL and LOW for memory  we can add more enums/state
later if we want. :)
