Sorry,i explained myself wrong, i was not talking
about automerging, or using the "stable branch" to
send patches. No, patches would be still sent to the
unstable branch, and no "automerging will be used", it
will be just overwriting.

The process i imagine like this:

-Unestable not working.
-Recent Stable working (1 day old).
-You dont have the skill to fix unstable.
-You download stable, work in your computer over
stable.
-Send changes to unstable (then things become
interesting).
-Check the files you are have touched. If no other
person have touched them since the stable (1 day old)
was made you can send your patches, if someone have
touched, you cant and have to wait till the stable
revision is updated.
-Once unstable boot again, stable is override by the
unstable, and now named stable.

This would alow people working, maybe in the control
panel, with little kernel or booting code knowledge,
keep working without having to stop developing for
dificult bugs in the kernel.

What do you thing? Maybe is a crazy idea cause i dont
know about the inners of SVN.
