[Gllug] Calling Joris van Rantwijk

I'm trying to track down the author of the Powerswitch module (triggers
an automatic shutdown when you press the power button, very useful for
headless boxes).  The most recent version of the code that I can find is
from August, 2001.  It seems to work fine with the latest 2.4.x kernels
but there's no license included and I'd like to a) use it in something
and b) find a new maintainer for the code if it's been orphaned.

Any recent sightings?

Wouldn't need the module if it were possible to cancel a suspend cycle
from userspace but all recent attempts to achieve this seem to have
degenerated into flames on lkml.
