I have raised this before, Julian. For making changes with some impact, where feedback from the community is desired, then the standard Apache rule is 72 hours. And even if we don't worry about rules, it is simply *respectful* to give others a chance to speak up. Last time, you bumped the format with something like FOUR hours notice. That was really bad. I'm not sure about the extent of the badness here (tho changing something as central as svn_types.h seems pretty obvious as an "input-required" change), but given that another member of the community has said "woah. too quick", then you REALLY need to slow down. This isn't an attempt to slow down your work. This is an attempt (bordering on requirement) for you to work with the rest of the community on changes to our codebase. -g
