RE: [ACPI-sppt] merge acpi-support into acpi-devel?

The archive shows that overall, acpi-support gets 18% the traffic that acpi-devel gets.

There are newbie questions on LKML, and there is a FAQ to help them.
I don't see why we shouldn't follow that model.

The down-side of 2 lists is that people who post to acpi-devel will probably get better support, so one wonders what is the advantage of having 2 lists.
