Yes, this is fine, but I also need a TODO file, listing what needs to be
done to the files in order to get them merged out of staging, and a list
of the people responsible for it.  Ideally a MAINTAINERS entry as well,
so that get_maintainer.pl can work well with the files.

I'll take these for now, but can you send a follow-on patch adding that
file?

Oh, and the README doesn't make much sense here anymore, so you should
probably fix that up too :)

thanks,
