[Testing] Status of Power-Saving

[Greg Smith]

Hi Guys,

Joe can tell you what kinds of testing we are doing.

In terms of changes in the code you can look at the 8.2 release notes:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_Notes/8.2.0#Longer_battery_life
and this link: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Tests/Suspend_Resume

This area is still changing somewhat so all info is subject to change.

Let me know if you have any further questions or comments after looking 
at those two links.

Thanks,

Greg S
