please note that I was making the request for there to be one alternate, 
not requesting any in particular, and definatnly not asking for all of 
them.

I was also trying to be clear that this is not something for OLPC to do, 
but that should be done by someone else. the fact that OLPC has now pushed 
the kernel modifications upstream will be a drastic help for this sort of 
thing.

I may end up doing this later on, but right now I'm working on getting 
ready to go do fireworks for the rest of the week, so it will definantly 
not be me this weekd ;-)
