Adding siyingchun (author of the commits) to the thread.

siyingchun: thank you for your commits to the quantum project.  We are
at a tricky time in the release cycle, very close to our release
candidate (RC) release for Folsom, so at this point we limit what
types of commits we accept.  You should be able to make these changes
once our RC is finalized in a few days.

In more detail, I think there are two key points here:

1) timing of the commits, given our RC1 target date is on monday and
we should be focusing all energy on 'high' or 'critica' bugs.
2) structure of the commits (1 per file, vs. one large commit or one
per "functional area").

My suggestion would be that siyingchun abandons the existing commits
on gerrit, reworks the patches to be one per "functional area" (e.g.,
per top level directory, with the exception of plugins, which should
be per plugin), and waits until master is open for grizzly to push
them again (will happen once we pull our RC1 release early this week).

Cleaning up imports is good practice, so we definitely want these
changes, its just probably better to wait until Grizzly opens up.  If
there are any changes in these patches that we believe actually
changes the behavior of quantum and fixes a 'high' or 'critical' bug,
we can separate those changes out and keep them for Folsom.

Sound reasonable?

Dan
