I don't have a good summary yet, but I think a section about the
discussion regarding the new recreate-merges and rebasing merges
that's been on going might be useful?

Yeah sure, we would gladly accept a summary of this discussion.

I would *love* a summary of that discussion, especially since it got
pretty unwieldy (and partially out of hand, but that part probably does
not need a lot of detail apart from the adjective "heated").

a lot of that discussion occurred prior to git-merge (tho it's been
ongoing since then?).

If you want to take the latest discussions into account, the summary
could be either split into two parts, one for this edition and the
other one for the next edition. Or we could wait and have the whole
summary in the next edition.

Jake, I do not know about your availability, but I would love it if you
could take a stab, as I trust you to be unbiased. I would not trust myself
to be unbiased because (as everybody saw who cared to read) I got a little
bit too emotional and should have stayed more professional.

Thanks,
Dscho
