It's really been a long road. ;) The original board file and "cape-bus" was posted for v3.2.x and rejected along with linus' rant.. (think about that, we are in v3.19-rc merge right now!) Then the "capemgr" was posted for v3.8.x, also denied... It's a miracle the basis "overlay" is actually mainline now!
