Huge? I'd say mistake, but not necessarily huge. I mean nobody other than you (at least in the context of this conversation) had access to the IEEE1275 proposed binding so it wasn't like there was tons to go on.I guess all the PowerMAC G5 systems out there and their device trees were locked up in a highly secure vault somewhere :-)
Apple has done silly things in their device trees before. I wouldn't hold them up as an excellent example.

Have patience with the embedded people that are both new to OpenFirmware and trying to make stuff work at the same time. I think the devicetree-discuss list will help here as new bindings are proposed. I hope you're subscribed.Why not ask the people who actually work on the standards? That's who I go to when I want to know something about openfirmware issues.
Honestly, I don't know. And from what I can tell, there _aren't_ people who actively work on the standards anymore. Mitch is active elsewhere and could be a great resource but aside from him I have no idea who to contact. josh
