This completes the import of all of the ACPICA code I have onto the FreeBSD mainline. I'm *very* sorry that I'm over a week late with this, as my lack of action has slowed things down a lot. Hopefully folks aren't too cross with me. You'll all note that I haven't put MAINTAINER tags on any of this. I ask you all to be a bit gentle with the code in sys/contrib because it's all on the vendor branch, so trampling all over it will make merging future updates from Intel a lot harder. Apart from that, and the usual "please stick with style" requests, it's now open season. There's a lot of stuff still to be done in the OSPM code especially, so have at it! For those of you interested in ACPI but not sure where to start, I strongly recommend grabbing a copy of the ACPI 1.0b and 2.0 specifications (most systems currently shipping are 1.0b compliant) from http://www.teleport.com/~acpi. Discussions on the code have been taking place on the acpi-jp mailing list (copied in this announcement). Please feel free to ask me, or any of the other acpi-jp subscribers if you have any questions about ACPI or this code in particular. Thanks go also to Andy Grover and his group at Intel for their contiuing cooperation in chasing bugs and answering our questions. I look forward to where you all take this now!

But not because people want to be opponents, rather because the tasks and relationships force people to take different points of view.
