Please don't do this.  It adds to my pain for reviewing patches.

I don't mind (and maybe even like) pulling w/ git from primary driver
authors.  But, I would prefer not to add extra layers of git between
me and the patch authors.

Similarly, I would prefer for Ulrich or Daniel to maintain the zd1211rw
git tree unless you (i.e. Michael) are going to be one of the primary
authors going forward.

While I'm complaining :-), I would probably prefer it if you had
adm8211 and p54 in separate git trees (or at least on separate
branches) as well.  That way, if there is a problem in a p54 patch
series, I can still pull adm8211 (or vice versa).

It is not my intent to scold (so please don't feel scolded).  It just
is counter-productive to prematurely consolidate merging duties.

Thanks,

John
