aside from speedup and broken Update (both of which I didn't really notice yet in the linux tree), I really like the new layout. I suggest to try it on ACPI monster merge and gits "next" branch. It's simplier to understand now (because of how the lines are highlighted when you click on them). Well the latter is a hopeless maze anyway, but you often can see more of the patch description now.

Thanks!
