For next time around I think recording a bit more of the discussions and
git history in these would be really good. At least I'd like to get more
people ramped up on ttm work, and for that to work out things need to be a
bit more accessible ... The above commit message is pretty much useless if
you ever hit it in a git blame, if you haven't been involved in any of
these discussions.
