I have not tried to submit patches to move vboxvideo out of staging. Partially due to lack of time, mostly lack of competence to follow-up on the review comments I hope we will see. I am perfectly happy to do trivial stuff, but when someone ask to replace the use of ttm with shmem+gem (example - I do not know if this is a relevant comment), then it is above me for the moment. And on top of this then I lack a good testing environment. I could do it but then anything difficult would just be added to a TODO file, and then I dunno how useful it is. Something to consider when we are past the merge window anyway. Sam
