But while I'm encouraged that the whole gitlink thing seems to be working 
for Andy, and some others are playing with it too, I'm also a bit 
discouraged by the fact that there hasn't been any noise or work on the 
porcelain side. I was obviously optimistic and hoping we'd see support in 
checkout/diff, but I haven't heard anybody talk about actually 
implementing .gitmodules and the porcelain support that uses them..

The thing is, almost all the core git people happen to be busy
at the same time at this moment.  Johannes has just moved, Shawn
and I are deep in day-jobs to the neck, ...

Heh, very true.  My short-term focus (this week) is git-gui,
then pack v4, and probably while working on pack v4 start at least
playing with Linus' gitlink thing and prototyping porcleain over it.
The gitlink work interests me, and I want to spend time on it,
but as Junio said, I'm overbooked...
