Junio, can you comment on this? I understand this probably doesn't
really affect the issue at hand, but it'd help clarify if it's ever
possible to move out of contrib/ nowadays.

Here too, can you clarify a bit about what should be out of tree and
what should be in contrib? I understand that not all rules are set in
stone and that there is an historical baggage for which applying all
rules is probably more trouble than it's worth, but again it's nice to
clarify for future users. Also it'd probably be worth commenting on
unwritten rules about human factors (easyness of communication,
response to criticisim, ability to make concessions, etc).
