In general, this is our intended approach (although in this particular case I'd
still not block the inclusion of a patch that has value for the project by a
required bitbake change upstream -- but that is a different story). Our current
focus is to work together to improve Isar and process the patch backlog --
which I thought you agreed with Alex on phone. If this doesn't help you and you
prefer the other model -- let's do it that way, it will only save my time.

With kind regards,
Baurzhan.
