drm-misc runs with the committer model, i.e. a few maintainers to do pull
requests and backmerges, a big pile of people directly pushing patches.
Someone wreaked the entire 01.org domain, but you can get at all the
tooling and documentation with

git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm-intel maintainer-tools

And then run make in there. We're not yet clear how exactly drivers within
drm-misc would look like (wrt which drivers and how much review and stuff
like that), hence the RFC.
