I'd like to ask if there are any plans to drop bootsplash for 11.2 as
the bootsplash.org site itself recommends moving over to splashy.

Fedora and Ubuntu seems to have moved to "Plymouth" it supports
animated boot splash.

It would be nice to use that for 11.2.
I'm not aware of anyone working on it though.

development seems to be active: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/plymouth/log/

I also saw it in moblin project repo.

splashy supports animated boot splashs too - we use it for suspend. Staying
with bootsplash sounds wrong, but then again it's the cheapest solution for
now.

Someone needs to do a test with both available solutions and then we need to
judge.

Yes, but it seems plymouth needs bit more work before we can test:
