Agreed.

Armin:  I've already done one merge directly to krogoth to resolve a
build breakage, but since you're maintaining the branch I didn't want to
do any additional ones (even though we started talking about samba
specifically in the krogoth context) without an explicit go-ahead from
you.

Do you want me to send you a patch set, a pull request or do you want me
to merge the samba changes directly?
