I had a discussion with Jonathan Schleifer (js) on IRC about his clang
changes at https://github.com/Midar/haiku

It has been discussed a bit in the commits mailing-list and his GitHub
is watched. it is however starting to go out of sync and out of
memory. I'd like to see this commited and done with.

I suggest an approach to update patches, verify that gcc2 and gcc4
builds/runs and commit. Then do fixes based upon reviews.

To follow up on this I think time would be better spent if we allowed
js to become a commiter than having me as an intermediate. Either as
an ordinary commiter or under some other form. Coding and
communication wise (IRC and mail) I think he has already proven
himself. So I guess it comes down to the understanding of the
undefined 'Haiku' way... :)

That would allow me to keep spend the little time I have focused on EFI.

Not that my opinions matters much, but give the guy commit access, just make clang a separate branch until its stable and debugged and I'd maybe suggest leaving it there till after R1 to reduce conflicts.

Still interesting stuff none the less.
