i also know of
http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils/
where the latest pmtools (e.g. acpidump) are to be found; 20050823 atm.

or a single place for downloading acpica-unix and pmtools, for instance
the ftp-site on kernel.org. although some mail notification would be
superior and would enable me to keep acpi.sf.net better in sync.
