[jakub-pavelek 2013-02-21] If this is a high-level BP as it says, lets have children linked to it.
[jstultz 2013-02-28] The blueprints above in the whiteboard may be dependent children. That's still TBD.
[jstultz 2013-3-6] At this point, the sync driver is queued in staging for 3.10. There will still be more work coordinating with the dmabuf-fences efforts to unify somewhat Android sync and dmabuf-fences, reducing the size of the sync driver and hopefully finding a way for it to be upstream for good. That effort can be managed here, or in aonther blueprint, depending. Will need to decide.
[jstultz 2013-5-1] Sync driver merged upstream in staging for 3.10-rc1:

Marking this blueprint as implemented. There will be work needed to get sync out of staging and integrated with other mainline appraoches in development, but we'll open a new blueprint when that work starts to solidify
