I would rather have frequent updates about the progress on the mailing 
list, and a long-running branch in which the code is developed, only 
rebasing to Junio's next/pu when absolutely necessary.

After all, it would be additional work to put it first into contrib/ and 
then to integrate it fully into git.git.
