Pity. Not trying to insist too hard, but this battery stuff can not break anything pre-existing in kernel. Also it's proven to work at least on five different embedded devices PXA2xx and S3C (HP iPaqs h2200, rx3000, h5550 and hx4700), with two battery types. Plus I believe that this battery class more than suitable for OLPC guys (battery-2.6 tree).
Anyway, maybe it's even better if we'll boil battery stuff a *bit* more.
Also you didn't [directly] answered how long exactly we should wait, should we come back after 2.6.21 or 2.6.22 release? In later case it's a bit too long, isn't it?

:-) You can sum "ADC chips subsystem" to expectations, we're at handhelds.org, going to cleanup and present it in few weeks. It will include Analog-to-Digital chips subsystem, generic ADC battery driver, generic ADC touchscreen driver with debouncing ability, along with few ADC chip drivers.
