IMO recent threads have clearly proven that you're right about basic
principles.  Question is what is the right level to start at first, and
how do we go about reaching concensus?  I.e. is the first question
whether we should do a fully in-kernel checkpoint and restart vs
entirely userspace vs a mix, or is there another place we should start?

It sounds like you have some good ideas in any case on where to start so
I'm glad you'll be there :)

thanks,
