Hi Ankit,

excellent. I presume the plan is to get some R-b tags for Weston, then
land the kernel patches (if they are not already?) and then land the
Weston patch?

Ah, ok. Yes, distinguishing from width and height is important.
You could easily side-step the whole terminology by simply using

        WIDTHxHEIGHT@RR RATIO

and simply listing the possible values for RATIO. Or similar.
