The outcome was, more-or-less, that we'll work on merging suspend2 or at least some parts of it. However, in the meantime there have been some discussions implying that we have some important problems with suspend/hibernation that suspend2 doesn't solve and that IMHO are more urgent than the merging of suspend2 right not. So, as far as I'm concerned, the plan is to fix the more urgent problems first and to work on merging suspend2 as far as there's time to do this. The problem is there are only a few people working on it and there's a lot to do, so I can only ask you to be patient. ;-) Greetings, Rafael - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
