I'm inclined to think that this thread is all getting a little out-of-hand. I know there were a few things that triggered this discussion, but the one that caused the subject of this message existed for less than 11 hours. This discussion serves to remind everyone of how annoyed people get when others break the tree. Only if there are repeated, blatant breakages is any further action required other than a message to the committer saying "I wish you hadn't done that!". I don't see any repeated breakages, so I'd just like people to agree that "sh*t happens", and deal with it. I'd ask committers to make themselves available and respond to email at least the day after they commit something. -- John Birrell - jb@cimlogic.com.au; jb@netbsd.org; jb@freebsd.org CIMlogic Pty Ltd, GPO Box 117A, Melbourne Vic 3001, Australia +61 418 353 137 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
