 * maintain-beagle-models:
  + RC1 packaging flushed out some bugs:
  ++ we include some binary blobs which we're better not distributing:
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu-linaro/+bug/709965
  ++ a couple of array overruns don't compile with our picky armel gcc:
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu-linaro/+bug/709711
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu-linaro/+bug/711272
    (both fixes sent and applied upstream)
  ++ we ought to include a fix for the "swp" in qemu-lock.h:
    http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/81205/
    (patch sent upstream, no comment on it yet)
  + ...so I have rolled an RC2 tarball with these fixed
  + investigated why USB keyboard model doesn't work: it turns out
    that the OMAP host USB model is basically just a stub
  + some warnings from qemu about bad width accesses are a symptom of
    a nasty disagreement between gcc and the kernel about getting atomic
    32 bit accesses:
    http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg113002.html
  + warnings from qemu about access to a nonexistent i2c register
    appear to be a kernel bug in the i2c driver for OMAP36xx:
    https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/linux-linaro/+bug/645324
  + investigated a hang running images built with linaro-media-create's
    --swap_file option. Still digging but I suspect the Linux driver
    doesn't cope with an MMC card which can erase in zero time...

 * merge-correctness-fixes
  + the usual upstream mailing list monitoring and code review
  + sent patch for PLI and hint space decoding fixes:
    http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/81711/

 * misc
  + some non-Linaro time this week; may be more next week
  + some advance planning of what we might want to do with QEMU
    in the future
