For small patches that might work. For large series perhaps repeatedly needing non-trivial re-basing I don't see me as a maintainer do that work over perhaps an extended period of time on behalf of contributors. > In fact I think that if a tree was always open to check stuff in (it > doesn't matter if the tree is xen-unstable, the maintainer's own git > tree, or a temporary branch somewhere), everybody would be much more > relaxed about releases and code freezes. Still I agree that such a model would be the easier one for submitters. What I'm not convinced is that making their lives easier is the higher priority.
