Is there any possibility that a vendor-RH message leaking upstream to us - i.e. you introduce something RH and later commit it to trunk? If so, would you want to preserve the vendor number or just reassign a new one? No strong views, but if pressed I'd +1 to Stefan's suggestion. Simple, and something you can do without touching our repos. -- Nick Kew
