I think thats a sound plan.

w.r.t inheriting changes from another SIG's content - I've spoken in the
past about having a testable path, so every change for a component
needed by SIG A but owned by SIG B, should come through a test(ed/able)
path if possible.

that would help reduce the number of versions we need to keep around,
wherin a SIG had to tag locally content they were not ready to move to
upstream yet
