OK. We'd still push changes to Linus via Andrew but have them also accumulated in that tree for testing. So we'd have a branch with changes sitting in -mm (likely to go to Linus in near future) and then possibly other branches with things brewing for people to try out. Does that make sense? I can setup that tree and maintain it. Or Fengguang, do you want to do it?
