Greg - please realize that anything I (or you) suggest are just suggestion and
examples. We are all going have to AGREE on what we will implement. Nothing bad
is going to happen. None of it is in stone.
I would ask you to not couch thing in trust. It is not about trust. It is about
experience. You have created a wonderful gift to the world, in Nuttx. Using a
"single commiter" model, a set of tools that you manage, and your own way of
working. You referred to yourself as a Github N00B. Other members on this
team use github everyday. Their experience is what is of value here. I have not
doubt that after you are a seasoned GH user of you would be able to craft the
perfect GH work flow.
My dad shared this with me once: If you can not dig a hole, do not stand over
someone who is digging and tell them how to dig. Get the hell out of the way,
let them do their job and bring them water.
Another pearl from him is: "You can't push a string"
