Heh, well, that's a good bit less resistance then I thought I'd get :)

Not that I'm complaining, but Is there anyone else in the RTC community
that you'd recommend getting feedback from on a change this large? I
just want to try to get any back-to-the-blackboard level feedback early
on if possible.

Also, are there any other RTC test cases (other then whats in
Documentation/rtc.txt) that you might recommend to help insure things
are bug-free before submission?

thanks
