My preference for ease of CommitFest management would be one thread on
-hackers for each chunk that can be separately reviewed and committed.
 So if there are three severable chunks here, send a patch for each
one with a descriptive subject line, and mention the dependencies in
the body of the email ("before applying this patch, you must first
apply blah blah <link to archives>").  That way, we can keep the
discussion of each topic separate, have separate entries on the
CommitFest page with subjects that match the email thread, etc.

Thanks,
