"Cool, so you have done 100% of work and now it is stable, fast and tested. You only need to do 200% more work to get it merged". Merging into kernel is not easy, sorry.
Of course. I was just saying that it might be better for users if you, Nigel and the other parties involved collaborated on getting suspend2 merged instead of working on 2 or 3 separate implementations. My gut feeling is that it would be quicker to do that than to nail the sucky low-level bugs that are bound to come up when developing the new uswsusp framework.
And now, since there's nothing I can actually do to help this - you can't learn to be a kernel hacker in two weeks - I'll shut up. But I just wanted to remind everyone involved that from a user's perspective, it would be great if suspend2 were merged.
It works, it's fast, it's stable, and it does what users want. That's a strong combination. It would be really good if you could work together to merge it.
