I agree it would be fun to talk about it, but the relevance of it to 90%
of the people in the room whose day-job doesn't have to deal with that
type of thing, is probably very low.

Let's stick to the stable workflow issues here, not the "why aren't
companies getting their code upstream and have to keep these big trees"
issue.  Which might be a fine separate topic to bring up, but usually we
all know the reasons there, and no one who is invited to KS can resolve
them...

Ok fine, I'll work on that, but if I do so, I will expect to see patches
from you for it :)
