[Powertop] (no subject)

Hello people, My name is Bill and I am third year computer science student. I am looking for a project to work on my final year project and I would be interested to work on power management on linux platforms. One idea I have about my final year project is to develop a GUI that will make powertop more user friendly and maybe add some more functionality to the source. Any advices and ideas are more than appreciated. Thanks, Bill
