FTR, I think this is a fine idea, and I think most (all?) of the other Django core developers do, too. It's just waiting on someone to Just Do It. Anyone -- preferably a group -- who wants to start such a branch could go ahead and start one using the DVCS tool of their choice (Django has semi-official clones on Github, Bitbucket, and Launchpad). Tell me and I'll start watching it; show some continued motion and I'll spend some time getting a buildbot going against the branch; show high quality and I'll start pulling from it more and more frequently; show incredibly quality and I'll suggest that the maintainer(s) get commit. > For my part, I see that it could be helpful to let some patches/ideas get a > shot at integration without having to endure the (necessarily) more rigorous > core commit trails. Quality is important, and if this branch is created it needs to maintain that quality. If this hypothetical branch is low-quality it's just a different tool for a queue of un-reviewed patches, and I've already got one of those. I'm not willing to compromise on quality: if patches don't meet our standards, they don't go in.
