Overall, looks good. I would make these changes to the diagram:
-- remove wireless-testing -> wireless-next-2.6 arrow
-- add me -> wireless-next-2.6 arrow
-- add wireless-2.6 -> wireless-testing arrow
-- add wireless-next-2.6 -> wireless-testing arrow
This would reflect that patches go into wireless-2.6 and wireless-next-2.6, then are pulled to wireless-testing. A few patches may go to wireless-testing directly, but they will eventually be reverted and possibly replaced with a patch in one of the other trees (and subsequently pulled back into wireless-testing). Nothing pulls from wireless-testing (except developers).
Thanks for the doc! :-)
