Cool.
I'll remove the whole series from mm.git immediately for
collision-avoidance reasons - let's sort things out later.
I'll get better/more accurate about this soon - I need to set up
infrastructure to fetch everyone else's trees, do test merges and
figure out what should be removed/fixed in mm.git. I might just base
mm.git on everyone-else and always route its stuff ->david. I need to
spend a bit of time on this and discuss with the mm-next peeps.
