Yep, here it is: Dave's description of his two main trees.

So atl2 will be in 2.6.28.

Subject: New GIT net tree naming...



Based upon feedback from Andrew and others I'm now starting
to use a new naming scheme for my GIT trees:

For changes against Linus's current tree:

   master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-2.6.git

For development meant to be merged in the next merge
window we have:

   master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next-2.6.git

Andrew/Stephen, let me know if this works for you.  This way
the tree names will never change.
