Well, yes, so OK, not half. But quite a lot of the checkins need to be
bad for the amount of work the established commiters need to do per
bug fixed to increase when you add a newbie. Yes, maybe the workload
in total increases in the beginning, but that's because the newbie is
actually fixing bugs, and as Stephen mentions, it's often itches no
one else (read the established committers) cares about, because they
didn't encounter that particular issue.

I have a problem seeing that as a bad thing.
