Well, I haven't actually seen Len's original tree, so maybe the stuff Andi 
pushed was just the stuff he had queued up independently. I guess I 
shouldn't judge before I'm sure.

Len wrote it up at one point, but I can't for the life of me remember 
where. 

He's not the onyl one to ask, though - Ingo and Thomas seem to have picked 
up topic branches pretty well (I had some issues with a couple of the 
topics, but they weren't fundamental and the major one was probably 
because Ingo tried a bit too hard to make sure that I never saw any 
conflicts at all).

Other topic branch users include Jeff Garzik and rmk. There's definitely 
people around who should be able to talk about what they are doing.
