will there be an 8.2 update ?

If we want to ship any G1 or ChangeTheWorld machines without DRM and
with pretty boot, we'll want to put a fix for #7896 into 8.2.1 (and 9.1).

The fix goes into /boot/olpc.fth in the software release, but only
a few people have tested it, and with varying results.

If we don't put this into the OS release, people who get non-DRM
machines will get the traditional Linux text-console bootup.  (Which
is OK by me, but OLPC might prefer pretty boot.)
