Yes, it doesn't have to be all pushed upstream for it to be used. It's just
a question of how big the out-of-upstream patchset is that Jeremy has to

Jeremy's tree.
No, of course it doesn't. The problem is, Jeremy's tree is very much a
moving target as he works to produce patches that upstream will accept.
Well, that might be fixable without too much effort. Maybe jeremy could
simply branch off a stable branch for 2.6.30 before rebasing to
2.6.31-rc1? Just to have something people can pull which is not based
on some -rc bleeding edge kernel? That branch wouldn't get updates,
except maybe for cherry-picked bugfixes, maybe also 2.6.30.x stable
patches if they apply cleanly. Development would still happen in the
xen-next + xen-master branches of course.
cheers,
Gerd
