To make sure we work with "current code" we try to keep our git repo in 
sync with David's net-2.6 tree all the time. Our intention is not to let 
our repo deviate away from that, but instead only contain our not yet 
pulled patches rebased on top of David's latest net-2.6 tree. If someone 
wants to do some work on TIPC, than doing that based on Linus' or David's 
tree should not be a problem. We do not intend to sit around for long 
periods with lots of additional patches in out repo, but instead ask David 
to pull as soon as we have something to share.

If I've totally misunderstood your point, please feel free to correct my 
thinkos, but I don't really see how the way we work with our repo is 
different from how people work with people/xxx/zzz.git repos on 
kernel.org.
