Git and Github especially get credit. If there is a PR for core with tests and 
a corresponding PR for the integration tests and it all applies and passes as 
per [1] then it makes reviewing so, so much easier.

The next set of validation I'd like to do is make sure that all of m2e work 
with any of these changes. If this works then incorporating changes becomes 
radically easier. Working on these PRs has been very pleasant. Maybe not for 
the contributors whose PRs I erased by mistake. Konstantin was particularly 
patient.
