Hi,

Maybe I need to make some thing clear

1) There will be mistakes.

When integrating bugfixes and enhancements, it is impossible to not make mistakes. The problem is that one can not check every single fix, this is just not possible. And even if it would be checked line-by-line and very closely, there would be new bugs. It is just impossible
that this does not happen.

The problem is of course that the people doing the integration everytime a bug is introduced look
(and feel) like idiots.
It would help if people would not strengthen this feeling... if I do something where I feel like an
idiot most of the time, at some point I will stop.

2) There is only limited time.

We can not look at every submission directly, we can not fix every bug (even those introduced recently) very fast. This does not mean that we don't like the person who submited something (or that this person did something wrong). It *especially* does not mean to discriminate againt projects. e.g. if Seaside can't be loaded because of somet stupid bug, this does not mean that seaside is not wanted or something like that.

3) There is a lot of stuff that should be done
... and the only reason it is not done is lack of time. It's not because we are idiots.

        Marcus
