We really do want to rework the structure a little before we exert the
upstreaming effort, but once we've done that the dependencies will be on nicely
packaged libraries and a stable API. And we will commit to ongoing automated
testing and maintenance of our own to make sure that upstream continues to work
properly.
If there's a better mechanism for supporting users from your perspective of
course we'd love to hear about it. :)
