Hi!

It really surprises me how misunderstood I am, I'll try to explain myself.

Just tell me to create additional teams, it's no problem, I already created
two of them, didn't I? I'm just waiting for the confirmation to do so. And
I will update them regularly as saucy gets installable by phablet-flash
(because of the rule: no extra steps needed)

Of course, but it's no need for something like that, each variant has it's
own unique codename.
So in our case there is pollux (with LTE) and pollux_windy (WiFi only).
Or for Note 10.1 there are four variants: n8000, n8010, n8013 and n8020.
You get the idea.

All my images I provide have been tested by me or by the community (or at
least no one complained that they don't boot), but I am testing them
manually, by flashing them in recovery.

I already submitted a MR with my udev rules files, on the IRC chat ogra
told me it will be the same as with the .config files a while back.
