Why do you think it will take 2 weeks of "intensive workshop" to learn
gerrit? Anyways I said gerrit like on purpose to signify that I am not
tied to pushing gerrit but submitting patches should be easy and via
the command line and reviews could be via the web pages (or command
line like gerrit supports).  That being said I feel pull requests is
the worst way of going and patch sets still is the best way forward;
if via email or a patch submission system.

Thanks,
Andrew
