I *think* he meant "not reviewboard". I'm not sure how you'd do a merge request without gitorious - publish your git repo somewhere online and email people the url and branch? personally I'm not too keen on merge requests - reviewboard works fine for plasma - but amarok seems to be really enjoying them, and I've heard claims that they get more contributions that way. -- This message brought to you by eevil bananas and the number 3. www.chani3.com
