I can't help wondering if other folks are also concerned about this. The thing is, why don't you just send your patches to Con who got this whole ball rolling and did a bunch of great work, proving beyond any reasonable doubt that he is capable of maintaining this subsystem, whatever algorithm is finally adopted? Are you worried that Con might steal your thunder? That somehow the scheduler is yours alone? That you might be perceived as less of a genius if somebody else gets credit for their good work? NIH? My perception is that you barged in to take over just when Con got things moving after the scheduler sat and rotted for several years. If that is in any way accurate, then shame on you.
