Bazaar is a funny concept. :) I think it'll work assuming we have a bazaar police - something constantly checking integrity of our code on some target platforms. These may be the community members reporting failures or a tool constantly testing some target platforms. But this tool is another topic for discussion.

And it has good scalability :) Exactly -- we don't expect committers to be infallible or have every type of machine and OS version that we intend to 'support' (i.e. keep running), so we cannot have a model that requires such extensive pre-commit testing. Of course, we therefore need full community approval to declare some revision of code stable, but our bazaar-like diversity is truly an asset.
