Ok Adam Conrad explained to me in IRC on a better way to proceed, so I'd like to withdraw this request. He recommended doing: - Use the PPA as a staging area (with perhaps having edgers be the truly edgy one) - Work on getting ricotz uploading rights for the drivers (if he doesn't have that already) - Get mmarley started on the road to becoming an ubuntu developer if he so desires. - Push the driver updates in as SRUs. - After there are a few upload cycles under the team's belt investigate shorter cycles, etc. Anyone have anything else to add or other advice?
