[iPAQ] Planning for an ALS release...

ALS is coming up (Atlanta Linux Showcase), starting October 10.

It strikes me that it would be good to pull together alot of what everyone
has been doing in time for that.

Here's what I know can/will make it:
        Roughly the current base kernel functionality. System already has lots
                of free memory, and significant free flash for user programs.
        Jamey's got alot of APM going as of today.
        I just got Keith's rotated X server built today (haven't yet put back
                in the touch screen/button support). Should have this all done by
                ALS and checked into XFree86 mainline. Might/might not have the
                rotation extension done by then.
        Ability to boot and mount NFS/Disk drives
        George is going over the distribution and trimming the fat Carl Worth
                sent in.
        PPP over serial.
        GQmpeg linked against Gnome libraries, rather than statis (major space
                savings).
        calibration program can be run anytime, not just at boot.

Unknowns (please let us know what you know and your opinions on whether
                we should include them, and your belief of relative importance.).
        xmms (Tom's working on this; might replace gqmpeg, particularly if the
                video works ok)
        busybox
        Companion Link tools: Gridwrite, cpkkb (on screen keyboard), cpwm
        More up to date gnome libraries
        more up to date gqmpeg
        Doom???
        USB???

Comments? What should I add to the list? What are people's opinions on
things like the CompanionLink stuff (looks good to me, but I've not played
with them more than a few minutes).
