Finally. ;)

That process is called ?reviewing? and replaces all the ?-official? 
repositories. The reviewed code should not be in its own repository, it should 
merely be a branch. Whether it?s a branch called something like ?stable? that 
lags behind master or whether ?master? is the reviewed branch and we only work 
in ?next? or ?pu? (?proposed updates,? stolen from git.git) is entirely up to 
us.
