 == cp15-rework ==
  * estimate shifted back since it turns out we can do something useful
    in initial-a15-system-model without this as a prerequisite, so that's
    a better order to do things in
 == initial-a15-system-model ==
  * I now have a working vexpress-a15 board model, and enough of the a15
    private peripheral region and CPU definition that we can boot a
    kernel compiled for A15-without-LPAE
  * patchseries mostly looks ok to upstream but there are some loose ends
    to fix up involving SMP secondary boot CPU protocol and making sure
    the right one of the two graphics controllers gets to display things;
    also it depends on some patches in the Calxeda/Samsung patchseries
 == other ==
  * patch review: Calxeda now basically ready to commit, another round
    with Samsung
  * made qemu-linaro 2012.01 release
  * usual round of meetings etc
