That's fair enough. And from what I can tell, your patches are fairly
localized to your platform. So once they get some initial review and
fixing, I don't foresee having too much trouble getting them merged.
One thing to keep in mind though, is that the closer we get to the merge
window, the tighter I get on what new stuff I'll bring in for the next
release. This may seem counter-intuitive, but I like to have the merge
window really be for testing out and fixing any issues that pop up
during the merge of all the various subsystem trees. You'll also want
to add in some lead time for patch review, etc.
That's a long winded way of saying "release early, release often" I
suppose :).
