I think you forgot an important point:

* lack of practical QA: no review workflow and no appropriate tools for
reviewing

I could start a long text block about why reviewing is mandatory for QA,
but let's just think about it this way:
What do you think would happen if the linux kernel switched to CVS and
gave the most active 250 collaborators direct push access to the main
Linus repository?

I hope greg k-h does not read this. He'd probably get a heart attack.

Also: people seem to think we don't have enough manpower for a review
workflow. No, it's really the other way around. If you make
collaboration difficult, then you need a lot more manpower.


I already pointed out that there are _not_ good review tools. There are not for a by-email workflow we have in Libav, there aren't really for a tool-mediated workflow we could have in Gentoo.

I have no problems in devoting some time on preparing a tool suited for our purpose (once we switch to git), but I'd need more volunteers to help me with it.
