Can I just say that I feel somewhat disappointed that you feel this way,
since Sergio came out with his branch I've pretty much dropped away from
things. However I can't see any references to dropped patches after a
quick search. As for Sergio's methods my only comment is that I don't
think he actually uses revision control, the whole reason the fork
happened was that he was sending me a ~100k diff every day with code and
cleanups intermixed, and I had to manually split them out into
changesets, which took a fair bit of time I didn't have.

Thanks,
Julien
