I've release the system firmware q2e11 which is the candidate firmware 
for 8.1.2.  It should show up in the next joyride.

The is the software eco proposal for its inclusion into 8.1.2.

The EC changes in this release:

	* The board ID was updated to work with the soon to be relased C3 
revision of the PCB.
	* OFW now has the ability to disable the ec battery subsystem if 
security is off.

The OFW changes:
         * Incorporate OFW2 modifications
         * trac #7399 - fixed "test /nandflash::fixbbt" command.
         * trac #7180 - new boot animation frames (background is white 
not gray) to match the new UI design.
         * trac #7141 - improved error messages for secure FS update.
         * SD driver - Increased data timeout to the max value, since 
some cards timeout with lesser values.
         * camera selftest - display the camera image expanded to fill 
the screen.  In the movie mode, mirror image the display and 
automatically adjust the brighness according to the ambient conditions.
