They already do. The problem is that it's not so easy for those of
us with commit access to send our git-tracked patches upstream, since
cvs support in git is nowhere near as good as that for svn.

With the core in subversion, me and Ton can still pull from other
peoples git repositories and have reorganizing and such done in
git before we ship them off to upstream, which will be a major
advantage for us.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
