I think in general the sooner we get a completed feature into the 
upstream repo, the better.

In that sense I didn't express an expectation or a request, but a 
suggestion (it's up to you and Miral to decide at what points you have 
features ready to be merged).

There are a couple of benefits:

* it reduces the amount of work needed at the end of the project

* it fosters collaboration, as new features get out "into the wild" 
sooner, and thus have better visibility

Would you prefer a different approach ?

Best,

Stefan
