Fine by me, provided the end result still shows up on the list for
review before it gets pulled. I do think however that a shared tree
will only be useful if there will be a gate-keeper who will decide
what goes in and what doesn't (based on consensus ). And once there
are bits of the patches that everyone agrees should go in, they could
just go to xen-unstable directly and skip the merge tree...
