I like the idea. Time to rethink our version strategy we have outlined for the 
versions < 3.x
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/bering-
uclibc/index.php?module=pagemaster&PAGE_user_op=view_page&PAGE_id=8&MMN_position=8:8

This approach is coming into age and should be updated, as all of the 
remaining pages needs a review.

Andrew; I think for Bering-uClibc we will have less than five branches:
1. fixes for the stable version (Davids 4.0.1 branch)
2. the development branch (Davids Git HEAD 4.1-beta1)
3. a "playground branch" where for example a move to a new kernel or uClibc 
can be tested
4. one I forgot yet...

Do you think, that is too much to maintain in branches?

Hmm; I don't have any pb with depth - I'm used to it and it will cause some 
work to change it. I just do not understand what we win changing it - but then 
I'm no git expert. Maybe you can explain to a mere git user?

Anway, if you think it's necessary to refine and can provide patches that makes 
it seamless, I for shure won't oppose :)
