Do you mean "as it was in July"? I haven't been sitting on my hands since July :) My wife will testify to that! I've been working on implementing the last new features I want in, fixing bugs and generally making it as stable and reliable as I can. (Sorry Andrew, but I'm being a perfectionist). At the same time, many of the parts that made Suspend2 be considered huge and ugly have been merged. The pm_message_t stuff, for example, was adopted early by Suspend2 and part of those stats you saw in July. The patch currently still includes the workqueue nofreeze patch, Christoph's todo list freezer modifications. These account for virtually all of the changes outside of kernel/power. I've also split the one patch that most people see into what is currently about 225 smaller patches, each adding only one small part, am writing descriptions for them all and am preparing to build a git tree from it. Hopefully that shows that I am working toward merging, just maybe not in the way that you were imagining. You'll remember that I've argued before that trying to patch swsusp into Suspend2 is infeasible. I'm not even trying to do it.
