Tim,
Based on your suggestions last week I have prepared a new linux-linaro tree. The source package name is now linux-linaro. The debian.linaro changelog only has high level changes not all the git commits. I removed all the cruft from the debian.linaro subtree. The url is:
git://git.linaro.org/jcrigby/linux-linaro.git
The linaro and master branches are currently identical. The latest tag is Linaro-2.6.35-1000.2. A source package based on this is in a ppa building at this very moment.
Thanks John
