So are you saying you want to import each file individually? We could do
that, where when you import a file, you basically say "I've checked over
this file and it's Ok to go in". The only problem is that in my last pull
of ubuntu's X.org package sources, there are ~638 changelog lines devoted
to fixes. That's a lot of changes to review, and since few people have
stepped up to volunteer to review them, it could take a very long time.
