 Controversy is always good.  Although, I don't think you really
 found it with this one.  You are encouraged to try again though!  ;-)

 Seriously, we are working on getting the core pushed to LKML and
 cleaning up the IO and memory controller work so they can be aired
 on LKML soon.

 The only reason I haven't pushed the most recent cleaned up patch
 to LMKL & akpm is that I'm not yet comfortable with the level
 of testing we've done, especially as relates to things like
 combinations of CONFIG options and various platform ports.  We are
 nearing completion on that testing and should have a core set of
 patches ready to push towards -mm before the end of the week.

 Oh, and I found in reviewing things last night that we do have
 a couple of review comments that seem to have slipped through the
 cracks (Chris Wright has some functional observations that I don't
 have a fix for as yet).  However, those should be relatively small.

 I completely agree - having been a part of that effort.  However,
 we are nearly completing that stage and also trying to get some
 general insight from the current users on what capabilities CKRM
 lacks today to make it useful when included in mainline.
