: the Linux world. But sorry, I can't resist: seeing this mess makes me
: happy that I'm running and tracking FreeBSD, where there is a single
: CVS source for everything (kernel *and* userland) without such issues;
: not to say that there are never conflicts, but at least it is clear
: what the single source for the system is, and everyone can view it
: (see every single source line being changed) and about 80 people can
: directly commit changes. It creates stability, unity and a steady
: progress.

There are a number of senior people working on the problem. We've already
evaluated the CVS approach and find it lacking, and have a better plan in
mind.
