Do you think about taking over the ibm-acpi maintainership? It seema
as Borislav has no more time for this code.

It would be good to fetch all the patches flying around on this list
and the wiki and submit them into main. Here are my small list with
things TODO for ibm-acpi:

1. Get rid of the experimental status of some features. See my patch
on this ml.

2. Integrate the new information abou thermal sensors. Your patches.

3. Integrate fan control. Patches on the wiki.

4. Get rid of the of the docking feature and push the genric docking
driver in main instead.
