We have decided to commit to integrating our fork as much as possible into upstream and maintaining it there. There are a lot of steps we'll need to go through to complete this process, including all the legal and technical preparations. These will of course take time and we're going to need some guidance. We already have pointers on BuildBot setup so we can start the ball rolling locally on our end. We'll start by maintaining a local patch queue against upstream branches and submitting them through the various review processes. I do not yet have a time estimate on when this will be ready. Is there a link to the paperwork requirements for code submissions? The sooner we get the ball rolling on that the sooner we can start waiting for it. -- smw ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This transmission (including any attachments) may contain confidential information, privileged material (including material protected by the solicitor-client or other applicable privileges), or constitute non-public information.
