Thanks, that's an excellent thread. |

I think you forgot an important point: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
* lack of practical QA: no review workflow and no appropriate tools for |
| 16 |
reviewing |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
I could start a long text block about why reviewing is mandatory for QA, |
| 19 |
but let's just think about it this way: |
| 20 |
What do you think would happen if the linux kernel switched to CVS and |
| 21 |
gave the most active 250 collaborators direct push access to the main |
| 22 |
Linus repository? |

I hope greg k-h does not read this. He'd probably get a heart attack. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Also: people seem to think we don't have enough manpower for a review |
| 27 |
workflow. No, it's really the other way around. If you make |
| 28 |
collaboration difficult, then you need a lot more manpower. |
