Dan Malek <dan@netx4.com> talks about "Cort's BitKeeper"

Dan Malek <dan@netx4.com> talks about "I work in the
BitKeeper tree, which is supposed to be the official PPC
tree and one step away from kernel.org."
What or where is the "BitKeeper tree"?
- Where are the repositories located?
- Are these repositories closed? Or, can others see what changes
are being made?
- How long does it take for the kernel changes from these
repositories to make it into the offical Linux kernel release?
- Who are the people involved with the embedded PPC Linux kernel
changes?

Dan Malek <dan@netx4.com> writes, " I have been working on
the kernel almost daily for many years now, and there are
few others that do the same."
Dan Malek <dan@netx4.com> is involved, but who are the
others? What is the division of labor between Dan and the
rest?
This is what I have figure out so far:

Linux for PowerPC Embedded Systems HOWTO/FAQ
- Is this a closed community? Or, can others join the team?
- If it is an open community, how does one join? Are there any
posted rules?
- I want to contribute to the process of porting Linux to
run on the EST SBC8260 single board computer, but I need to
understand how to participate.
