I'm about to setup my GIT trees on kernel.org, once that is complete
I will be solely updating those trees again.
I will notify everyone when this is ready to go.
Just a heads up for everyone...

OK, I will use those trees from now on.
Also, I have decided to rename them in linux-next to match your names, so:
Was Now
--- ---
net-current net
net net-next
sparc-current sparc
sparc sparc-next
ide-curent ide
and I have dropped the old ide (would be ide-next) tree.

I've made a dummy sparc-next tree for you to pull from, thanks:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc-next.git
As for ide, I only plan to accept real bug fixes for that subsystem
so I'll avoid creating an ide-next tree for now.

*If* you have change against the network core/drivers then, you would
want to use David Miller's net or net-next trees.
As a general rule:
- net tree is only for fixes/critical fixes
- net-next tree is for everything else
There are always exceptions, but if you stick to the above general rule,
you will be fine.

I have switched to these.

You used to have sparc-next and ide-next (and the above used to be your
"current release fixes" trees) ...

I'm still new to net kernel development, so a little confused about these trees.
So we should submit patches based on these trees, instead of Linus'?
About net and net-next, How to decide which one to use?
Thanks!
