</div>I don't want to start and argument but I think it's worth debunking<br>
some of these.<br>

</div>You can have gerrit post the patchsets to the mailing list. You can<br>
also then discuss them and emails will appear as comments in the<br>
gerrit system. This can be annoying to setup but it definitely works.<br>
<div class="im"><br>

> send-email' one liner.<br>
<br>
</div>When you have your changeset simply type git review, this will<br>
automatically create a review and trigger any hooks on the gerrit side<br>
like triggering a jenkins build and emailing the patchset to the<br>
mailing list.<br>
<div class="im"><br>

<br>
</div>As already noted you can do some of this by mailing patchsets to the<br>
list, that aside gerrit is very indexable as can be seen if you try<br>
search for openstack or android changes.<br>
<div class="im"><br>

<br>
</div>I disagree because now that patchsets are stored as git refs in the<br>
remote repository which is very easy to work with.<br>
But this is a matter of opinion. :)<br>

<br>
</div>Hehe there is more to compatibility than the code working together. :P<br>
<br>
As the test suite becomes more fully fledged the importance of making<br>
use of it increases. Having a proper CI system like this will ensure<br>
tests are run against every patchset.<br>
