Hi folk,

first of all, I'd like to make clear that I'm not seeking to pass judgment on 
anyone or any thing here, just trying to understand the situation so that I can 
choose the most appropriate development strategy for myself.

I'm doing proof of concept work, and I don't know exactly whereabouts in the 
source this will take me. So I want to have a local build of everything, so 
that I can poke around wherever  I need to, and am able to create my own images.

I could choose to base my work on a Release. There are pros and cons to this. 
My current preference is a continuous integration strategy, whereby I sync 
regularly with latest. This way I avoid a 'big bang' merge/integration further 
down the line, if it turns out I need or want some new functionality that's on 
the way.

But this does not work so well if the latest is often broken. I understand that 
it's 'bleeding edge' and that functionality, particularly at the system level, 
may or may not function properly - I'm just referring to being able to build 
things here.

I've experienced three build breaks now in the i586 build in the last 4 working 
days. One has been resolved, two appear to still be there. So my question is, 
is this normal ? Or are things particularly fragile right now ? Or am I doing 
something wrong ( not sure what - I've not changed any code yet... ) ? If this 
is just normal, I'll switch to the latest release as a base, and go from there.

Thanks,
Mark
