Yes the new framework went in. The old hooks still exist so not to break
every fbdev driver. Now the old drivers can be ported over to the new api.

Yes par tof it went in. Alot more has to go in tho.

Yes there is. Take a look at drivers/char!!! Not all of the ruby tree has
been moved over tho. I want to port as many drivers over to the input api
and new fbdev api as possible. Then push the console stuff. Plus I have
more plans for the console code that I haven't got around to yet. Then
their is the serial layer rewrite which I haven't worked on yet either.
