 points to all the "master" branches of the submodules. Instead, it has

 to have exact sha1 sums for each point. It would be great for tagging

 releases, but not so nice for "build master".

+Ajax: It's great to be able to build the server without having to

+build xedit.

+Daniel: It was great for distributions.

+Jesse: The only thing that makes sense to merge back together is the

+server and drivers. It's a social problem, but this technical change

+would help.

+Kevin: That puts structure onto the technical side of things, but not

+any structure onto the social problem.

+Ajax: The problem with merging things together is that it doesn't

+address the modularization problem. What happens when I want to

+package up the server, but the Intel driver happens to be broken at

+the time? If all I can grab is one point in the development of

+everything, then there's a problem there. How can I back out just the

+Intel driver changes?

+John: It sounds like we want monolithic build and test, but we want

+modular packaging and distribution.
