Just few points about it
1) Use separate ChangeLog file for experimental features. E.g. I'll use
ChangeLog.mips for my mips branch. No need to mention all the history,
only what needs to be put when feature is merged back in mainline.
2) Members are encouraged to use /people/<name>/<feature> branches to
simplifiy the management and merging to mainline once feature is
considered mature
3) For non-members which have copyright assignment send the patch I'll
apply it
4) Any inclusion of material non-covered by copyright assignment is
above my authority and have to be approved by maintainer
