Hi everyone,
I sent this iteration over a month ago, and I haven't received any
feedback since then. The same goes for the two other series [1] and [2],
which I sent after discussing with Melissa.
As you may know, Melissa is stepping down on her maintainership duties
for VKMS [1].
I'm a bit surprised that nothing has been reviewed or merged, as Maíra
mentioned in [3] that she wanted to merge at least the first 11 patches. I
just checked, and this series applies to drm-misc-next. However, if you
encounter any issues, I can send a rebased version.
I want to get the series merged, but, as me and Melissa pointed out last
XDC, we are volunteers. AFAIK VKMS has been maintained by volunteers
since its beginning. We are doing our best to maintain VKMS, but we do
it in our free time.
I need to take some time to review and test this series properly. Then,
I can push it to drm-misc-next.
As you can see, I have more series ready ([2], [3]), and I am working on
additional features (configfs [4], variable refresh rate, mst...).
However, I am currently waiting for feedback on this series before
proceeding further with the next topics.
What should I do to move those series forward?
I appreciate the work you are doing for VKMS. But, apart from adding new
features, we first need to ensure that VKMS is stable. Also, when
reviewing new features, I need to make even more tests to make sure that
everything is still stable. Therefore, it is a slow process, but I hope
we can start to move forward.
