Just wondering, will you be reviewing patches before they are committed
or are you going to have a fairly liberal check in policy?

To begin with, I'd like to keep an eye on what gets committed to the
code base. However, I don't want to become a bottleneck. My hope is that
there will be a few persons who contribute regularly, and whom I can trust
to do things the "right" way (whatever that is), so I don't have to
check on everything they do.

I will provide the framework/infrastructure for hobbit development to ensure we have
a good process.

ie, code(by many persons), compile,packaging, testing and finally released packages
(not just binary).

I will document this in hobbit developer slide.

currentl the pdf is very very raw.
