Feel free to do so.  But it does mean that one of you two will
be frustrated because your/his code won't be accepted.

Maybe a better option, then is to:

- do a quick version of the code for yourself.
- then compare that with Joao's version.
- then do a mix of:
  - argue to change or remove some parts of his code (those that would
    make it difficult for you to install your code on top of his)
  - keep the other changes to apply them after he installs his

WDYT?
