These are some great links (especially the last two; I knew about the hdaps
capabilities of my ThinkPad hardware, but this is the first time I'd seen
anything about the advanced battery capabilities!  Are there any end-user
tools available yet to make use of the smapi battery interface?  (Or should
I watch your talk to get the answer to this? :)

Also, would it be worth posting this info to a wider audience on
debian-devel, rather than just on debconf-discuss?

Cheers,
