I'd like to announce that the OpenSolaris Tesla Project at: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/tesla
... is now live. Project Tesla seeks to provide OpenSolaris with a platform independent power management policy architecture and administrative paradigm, leveraging existing (and forthcoming) mechanisms for power managing system resources. In the short term, the project will investigate implementing power aware scheduling policy to better leverage forthcoming CPU power management mechanisms. If you are interested in power management, the associated polices, and how they interact (or should interact) with various platform independent kernel subsystems, like the dispatcher, VM subsystem, etc, i'd like to encourage you to visit the above project site and join in the fun. Thanks, -Eric
