While it's not my preference, I'm fine with pulling picasso out of the tree and doing the development in private if that's the community desire. When we're done, it can go in, or not, as the coreboot community chooses. Because we can't boot what's in coreboot currently, we're being forced to develop the platforms in private anyway.
I'd like to note that the only reason it's "Rotting" is because we weren't able to get the patches in to get it working. Sure, they weren't perfect, but it's a new and different architecture. Instead of forcing google to develop it in private so that we can have something working, maybe we could have gotten something working into the codebase, then improved upon it.
Maybe have a look at what's being forced on us before complaining about how we're going about it?
I'm really confused now, you are the third one that argues that build tests would force you to work in private. I don't see the causality here.
Why is it easier to work in public when you have a stale copy of your platform on the master branch instead of the start of your commit queue?
Or am I just to irritated to unterstand... do you mean private => Gerrit public => master branch?
