Given we see multiple organizations with an interest in this work, but 
that the bulk of the work can't be integrated in the short term, y'all 
might consider a shared development branch for coordination.

That gives the two organizations a place to coordinate their work while 
things like the ISA spec and such get solidified.  Presumably the goal 
for the main body of work is not gcc-14, but gcc-15.

I don't want to dictate how coordination happens.  Ultimately it's 
something the relevant developers can decide.
