FYI, I have been running the MCE replacement on my daily-use N900 ever since the clone was completed and have noticed no problems with it.

not experimental, but yes, all /porting/* branches are supposed to be relatively identical components in there and hw specific. I don't think we want to follow the mainline kernel path to have universal sources so the code can run on every arbitrary hw platform, rather we might need an adapted MCE, PA/ALSA, whatnot else variant for each device, and we keep all those (obviously non-blob aka FOSS) variants in their according branches of /porting/* repos. For N900 it would contain only FOSS replacements of blobs, for other targets it may also contain hw-specific variants of already opensource bits

So if I get your meaning correctly:
Porting/ - Modifed packages to depend on virtual package for hw feature, eg. cam-firmware
Porting/N900 - N900-cam-firmare with provide: cam-firmware
Porting/Neo - Neo-cam-firmare with provide: cam-firmware
Porting/...

HAM refused to install the mce .deb (wrong version error, or some such) and, as a reflash is of not NB to me, I went ahead with dpkg -i and got the errors. I reasoned they were not serious as this after all is meant to be a clone.
A thumb version would be nice, but we needs be patient....

A few days ago (maybe 2 weeks, dunno) I suggested to get a new CSSU repo /porting/N900 that would contain all those "liberated" bits that replace blobs in fremantle core. Freemangordon appreciated and supported the idea. Next would be /porting/Neo900 then.
