I agree that a more decentralized approach would be better, but as I
said that can't possibly happen if nobody ever even tries to work with
valac internals. Basically, I'm not saying that Jürg or Luca need to
even work on valac, but a patch review now and then would already help
a lot. And some of those patches are really quite simple and obviously
correct, but no review except theirs has any weight.

I assume "more testing" is basically interesting because we need less
(sophisticated) review? That might be true from a functionality POV but
not regarding architecture etc. But more tests are always good of
course.
