Hi Stephen,

I am not planning to send any pull requests for v3.11,
at least not for the branches that I rebased.

I can rewind the next branch if you like. If so, would rewinding
it to the point it was at for next-20130709 make sense?

Also, on this topic, could you clarify when it would be appropriate
to do any rebasing. Obviously I am not clear on this.
