And they need not wait for the maintainer to be 110% sure that something is final. Our community is small enough to swallow rebases you would do if at some point a patch for the next kernel is replaced, etc. As others companies we have here internal review (Gerrit), build and regression systems which are dependent on the open-source maintainers trees/branches (for example, Dave Miller's net and net-next trees and used to be also on Roland infiniband.git / for-next branch). These branches must be well known in location and name. Lets find a way to get things in that direction, for everyone's benefit.
