Could we have a shorter delay between official releases of refpolicy than 
normal for this cycle?

Including the usrmerge patch in git makes most file context patches against 
the release policy not apply to git which is a significant annoyance when 
submitting patches upstream.

I would also like to get most of the systemd patches I have merged soon, which 
also adds a significant point of conflict between release and git.

I can't speak for all the other people who have significant repositories of 
policy patches.  But one issue that hinders me in sending them upstream is the 
fact that they usually don't apply cleanly to git.  I'd like to see more 
patches going upstream so we don't have such significant differences between 
distributions.  I hope that more frequent upstream releases can help in this 
regard.
