so, while tobias was a bit ahead of time, i now actually did that:
- the wip/qbs branch was force-pushed to the current master
- the special permissions are gone

for you that means:
- use the *pull* command from loaden's *last* abandoned gerrit change
  against 2.6
- finish off the changes (i.e., squash the fixes onto the relevant
  original changes). keep functional changes separate, while squashing
  fixes. i think there is only two major commits in there.
- now rebase against the wip/qbs branch
  - due to the recent refactorings on master this may *massively*
    conflict.
    to deal with renamings, it is probably a good idea to just git
    format-patch the changes, do a search&replace on the diff, reset the
    branch and then re-apply the commits with git am -3.
- post the changes against refs/for/wip/qbs for usual review

if major refactoring strikes master again before we merge that branch,
we may need to rebase again (merges are utterly meaningless after a
major refactoring), but for now let's assume that this branch follows
the "normal" rules.

have fun
