Re: API specs for suspend/resume capability

Hi Karl,

What would suspend() do?  Where would you expect to call it from?

I'm finding it hard to imagine a scenario where such a flag could be used,
or what it would control.  I guess you must be talking about a
multi-threaded application - but I'm not too sure.

Regards
