We'll see how it goes, but I think we can find that the branches based on other branches are cheap to maintain and can generally be treated as standins for the branch they're based on. Ie treat a maintained andy-tracking or balaji-tracking as stable-tracking-with-pending-upstream. Since we will hopefully eventually have several pending upstream patches we need a way to deal with it generally, leaving stable-tracking clean and ready for them coming back upstream is the first plan anyway. | By the way, regarding screen blanking: the bug that made the | backlight not quite turn off also showed that there's more going | on: it seems that we also don't turn off the LCM controller and all | the Glamo clocks.

Iterate through all of them. Hum we do have Harald's patchset about that in there, but it seems to be a point. - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkkihjsACgkQOjLpvpq7dMpTHwCePc5M6M5TmTQW4wzKRbAJZOH/ 6jIAniRxurlsJlGshgmKmTHp+wx1JfNL =ubhN -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
