It doesn't look too difficult, and it could be helpful. Does github support submodules in a repository?

We might want to just keep things separate, though. We can publish the API wrapper as a separate drupal module and have the make file pull it from drupal.

I'm fine working either way.

It doesn't sound like it quite does what I was expecting. The super project references specific commits instead of floating to the tip. Therefore, every commit to a sub project would also require an update to the super project. I don't think the complexity of this project warrants such overhead.

Shall we just use separate git repos where it makes sense and one main repo for the distro?

I think that sounds best.
