Baz has developed a script that would yank a subtree with the proper |
16 |
deps for the original GLEP 19 effort. It wasn't that hard to do. |

And the idea of having a subtree is that the backports would be done by |
19 |
a specific group of developers instead of the package maintainers and |
20 |
therefore not getting any more work on the other devs. |

I'm not really sure why the older one died... We were pretty close to |
23 |
being able to build the stages and starting to distribute it... I would |
24 |
be very favorable to seeing the whole thing restarted. |
