Yes.. I'd have an public announcement in this list preferred. But it's 
work in progress ;)

The submodule point to an older commit?

I would say git will decide for you. Workspaces/version have their own 
repository. If you're inside the sysext/{workspaces,version/ folder and 
push, it will probably push to the correct repository.

I'm currently looking (again) at `repo`, which was created together with 
gerrit for android development.. maybe it helps us.

Kind regards
