For those of you who use the continuum success notifications as a validation that your commits didn't break anything, shame on you! :) You should DEFINITELY compile locally before committing your code, and not rely on continuum. Sure, everyone should compile before committing, but I think you are being unrealistic :-) While I don't work much on myfaces, on the projects I do work on consistently I often have several modifications going at once and commit stuff related to only one of them at a time. Having an automated build system is a lot more reliable to catch problems than waiting for people to complain on the mailing list or trying to remember to check out the changes into another copy of the project and build it there.
However, due to the time lag between committing and the automated build system compiling the project, there exists the possibility that some poor soul checks out a non-compilable version. This is not acceptable, and usually the cause of much elevated blood pressure :) I don't dispute the value of an automated build system as a means to provide snapshots of the most up-to-date development. I agree, too, that we should commit logical units of work at a time into the repository. I'm just saying we should make certain what we commit doesn't break compilation. thanks
