This should absolutely be at the discretion of the maintainer of the imported code in our tree. From personal experience, allowing local changes to land in Breakpad before they are landed upstream has caused huge headaches. Our in-tree copy of Breakpad was nearly 2 years out-of-date because of a few large patches that landed in support of OOP work and were difficult to upstream. -Ted _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
