Chris,

I'm almost finished with the layered lookups effort. I will then have a look at your work, if Erwan does not beat me on it. If I recall well, we were reluctant to commit as it was only a temporary workaround, isn'it?

Sometimes volunteer effort comes in spurts. There is a good chance you'll have a dozen patches sitting there for a while, and then they all get committted in one weekend.

If you give up and not upload patches, then when that volunteer time becomes 
available there will be nothing to commit.

If there is one patch per entity,
only one or two patches waiting to be
committed at any one time, one month to commit each patch,
that's alot of
patience (100+ months)!

It sounds like my options are:

A) not bother doing anything
B) setup my own local svn that is a mirror of the apache
svn server
