The workflow of the Linux kernel would simply not be acceptable for us with them having this hierarchy of maintainers with Linus at the top and doing all the final merging. If at all an approach like Qt uses with automatic continous integration of pull requests committed by core devs or forwarded by them from non-core devs would be the way to go for us - if at all.
