I believe we can keep on fixing bugs, or adding some minor stuff but no
big changes. Aslak can easily merge these small changes into the
refactoring branch. He can also warn us about where he is refactoring
now so that we don't try to conflict with each other :o)

A classical debate of doing things in parallel or not :o)
I don't think adding new test cases will create conflicts. So keep on
creating new tests. The important rule is: don't create conflicts.
That's it. Maybe Aslak went too far by saying "avoid committing
anything"; I change it to "avoid committing anything that may create
conflicts in the refactoring branch" ;-)
