All he has to do is create a branch and call it stable, or whatever,
and use cherry-pick to move small stables patches from other branches
to the stable branch. What's so difficult about that? I don't get
it.

Good thing that this is an experiment because creating a new
organization just for something like this is a stupid idea. Is it so
difficult to create branches and use the features that git provides?!?
Walter was very uneasy about opening up the primary DMD repo in that
manner.
Maybe if this experiment proves successful he will be more open to
allowing
the work to take place in the primary repo? Let's make this project
successful and show Walter the true power of Git!

He already works on D full-time, this would only slow him down. The other
option is to open the repos to even more people with master push rights,
and it was a months-long struggle to convince him to let Kenji, Brad, and
Don push. Imagine the effort it will take to convince him to let someone
else in with push rights?
This is a step in the process. Should it prove successful we can reopen
the organizational discussion, but first, let's just make it work.
