If we start with a single component and go from there we can monitor how it is
evolving. If the approach is sensible, scalable and we like it we can move to
the main repo. I assume you will post patches for view? I recommend this happens
because a large merge becomes a simple move to the main repo. Yes buildbot will
go nuts but we can discuss this Amar when the time comes.
