Exactly. One of the main points of modularizing is to minimize the coordination burdens associated with our processes. Especially when you have an organization of volunteers, creating a situation where one person's non-responsiveness can stymie overall progress is a bad idea.
Point taken. Still, you haven't taken away my worry about "conflict propagation": what if a couple of conflicting modules block the newest versions of 20 (or more!) other modules?
Is that somehow not possible? Am I missing something?
If that happens in subversion, we have the same problem. Perhaps a larger one since merging to release is such a mess.
I didn't think of that. Thanks for clearing up! -Julian
