If a patch is too complicated to do that, most of the time I will push the prog patch and open a bug for the corresponding change to be made for Bootstrap. However, I anticipate that during the 3.16 cycle there may be cases where a major piece of functionality added to prog may need to be held back until a Bootstrap implementation is available, although I will assist in minimizing the number of times that happens. > And for the future, if I hear that bootstrap is THE solution, we'll code > only for it, and offer only bootstrapt fixes for the master.
