I'd like to see four more points addressed:
1.) pm/module.d/uswsusp:
Now that it disables the 99video hook, it has to parse the quirks
itself and pass it to s2ram in do_suspend and s2both in
do_suspend_hybrid
2.) better pmu support
check_suspend should return true if /dev/pmu is existent
3.) SLEEP_MODULE
I'd like to have an additional option "auto", which is the default and
tries to autodetect the sleep module that should be used:
first check for tuxonice
then uswusp
then fall back to kernel
4.) I'd like to move the configuration variables like SLEEP_MODULE,
TEMPORARY_CPUFREQ_GOVERNOR (and optionally PM_LOGFILE) into
pm/defaults and document them properly.

I'll try to prepare patches for that over the weekend.

Besides from that, I agree that we should get out a new release soonish.

Cheers,
Michael
