The trick would be compromising on things that I, for instance, think
need to be rewritten or removed.

Oren would have to rebase his work against what I do.  I guess you could
think about it like me being upstream from Oren.  Anything that I would
change, Oren would need to rebase on top of.

Oren, are you willing to keep a set of patches that add functionality on
top of a minimal set that I'm keeping?  Mine being the set that we're
trying to push into mainline as soon as possible.
