I'm happy to do it, though as code manager it might make more sense
for  Marco to do it. We should get in the habit of

fork
branch
work
write tests
request for merge
integrate

or something along those lines. When merges are done and all tests are
passing in theory the code should be release ready...

Regards

Tim
