Good question - I don't really know. The current draft schedule lists
feature freeze for 2010.02 as build 129 (for which X has code freeze
scheduled in early November), which would apply for things targeting the
LiveCD or /release repo, but not the /contrib repo. I don't know how the
Indiana team plans to handle drivers that Sun won't be supporting but the
community will - that's an excellent question to find out sooner rather than
just before the integration deadline.
