Anyone with large series near completion? Hi, sounds good to me.

Any strong opinions either way? I would be happy to see the fbdev backend go. It's dead tech, and anything new relying on it is a false start. However, to be fair, it hasn't been that much of a burden yet, to me anyway. There have even been an occasional patch or two proposed from the community. Thanks, pq
