Usually, yes. It'll either get applied in some form or other to the
linux-mtd tree, or on the infrequent occasions that Artem merges
something that I object to, the author will get an email from me
explaining *why* it wasn't applied.

Sometimes I *do* just pull everything from Artem's tree, but usually I
don't.

Yes.
