While I agree that this would be good, it seems to not work that well.
And given that the work in github has been discussed a lot already I
think it would be better if we actually used what has come out of it.

The Github to Haiku workflow seems lacking. I do hear some frustration
from time to time from people.
I think pulkomandy mentioned gerrit[1] as a way to handle things like this.

> And not one big commit "Port the whole userland to Clang."

Yes. That commit is too big and not very specific. Code going in to
Haiku would need smaller commits and more to the point.

> Also patchs for the build system to support Clang seem missing.

That needs to be done. That doesn't mean the work already done should
waste away.
