It seems like either you should be a private fork/port, or a public upstreamed one, but not both. If you want to live in the upstream tree, I think most of your development work should land quickly in public. If you want to work in a separate repository without landing changes back upstream quickly*, I think it's better to stay private until the point at which that changes. *At most I don't think your private repo should be more than a couple weeks off the public repo. Based on our experience with the Chromium port I think it would be far easier on your group to be public and do development directly in the public tree. PK
