Hi,

from contributors (my) view the multiple repos and processes has never
worked really well. There is certain amount of confusion of how to get
patch into different repositories and how to follow a patch throughout
different versions.

I am all in (as I have been always) for single repository and single
process for all the development. There should be no need to create
multiple forks inside a single organisation for things that can be
done in branches inside a single repository.
