Herein lies the experiment :-) Speaking personally, simply having a patch applied and available in a git branch doesn't actually make my job any easier. It's just as easy for me to apply a patch from trac - possibly easier, since I don't have to spend as much time gardening my git remotes. I was thinking more of having one person at the sprint to take the role of integrator - that is, the patches still go up on trac, but one trusted person at the sprint takes the role of lieutenant for the sprint, and selects patches that they consider trunk-ready. The end deliverable is a branch that a core developer could theoretically just git merge and push to SVN. In practice, there will probably be further review by the core, but the idea is to provide a single rich vein of high quality patches. Of course, I'm open to any other suggestions. Like I said, this is an experiment - if it works, we can repeat it, or we can improve on it as we go forward.
