This is a very slippery slope for the GCC project. Imagine all GCC
developers start checking things in, with non public review process, on
the basis that that would involves proprietary customers nd
proprietary codes!
Form experience and the cases I know of, huge efforts are made to
identify freely accessible data that could be the base of patch
reviews or testcases or benchmarcks. After that, the rest of the
review process is made public on GCC list.
