We have decided to commit to integrating our fork as much as possible 
into upstream and maintaining it there.

There are a lot of steps we'll need to go through to complete this 
process, including all the legal and technical preparations. These will 
of course take time and we're going to need some guidance.

We already have pointers on BuildBot setup so we can start the ball 
rolling locally on our end. We'll start by maintaining a local patch 
queue against upstream branches and submitting them through the various 
review processes. I do not yet have a time estimate on when this will be 
ready.

Is there a link to the paperwork requirements for code submissions? The 
sooner we get the ball rolling on that the sooner we can start waiting 
for it.
