So, rather than moving tiny/next-next to tiny/next as soon as tiny/next gets merged during the merge window, wait until the end of the merge window (and the release of -rc1) to do so? That makes sense, to avoid causing confusion and unnecessary conflicts during the merge window.
The code in tiny/next right now is based on 3.17-rc1, and is intended for 3.18. I'll send a pull request for 3.18 as soon as the 3.18 merge window opens, and any patches I receive after that point will go into tiny/next-next. I'll wait to move tiny/next-next to tiny/next until 3.18-rc1 is released.
