Pretty much. We're reluctant to enable anything in staging until it's 
clear that it's going to form the basis of ongoing development (rather 
than being neglected and b43 gaining support), and we'd want an 
indication that John Linville's willing to deal with the bugs. Breaking 
suspend/resume is an absolute dealbreaker at present.
