Looks like the tendency
is +1.

The PMC discussion
was deferred to next Tuesday, where we will make the final call.

+1 I don't think that the rebased
changes are reviewed again and
again, committers just have to wait a long time to get a merge window
and that is demotivating.

Now that our committer and contributor community activity has hugely
increased, we should remove that demotivating approach.

jobs start to suffer due to our usage of "Fast forward only"
strategy. Reality though is that no one rebases his change multiple times
and wait for gerrit again just because another commit went in, I've tried
and in platform.ui I gave up on 3rd rebase and just pushed it right after
rebase. But even this generated one more totally useless gerrit build.

 - I don't see any downside using it and multiple benefits - free
a lot of time on our builders, reduce interruptions for contributors and
so on.
