We have been talking about it between us. Originally, Ingo was opposed to it exactly *because* he wanted to keep the development as open as possible. After the merge window craziness is over, we may want to revisit this.
I'm not saying we're doing everything right at the moment; heck, we're still figuring out how to work this on three people. However, I want to set the record straight - Ingo *especially* has been concerned to keep development open from the very beginning.
