In my view we should start having stricter controls over certain parts of the code. And when I say "certain parts" (well maybe some others...) I mean the AI. It is a complex component and difficult to reliably test. I think that we should have a general rule that even developers with SVN access have to get "approval" to work on such components. If people want to write their own AI's, that's fine, but if they want to mess with the default AI, we should look very very closely at what they are doing.
