Such as? We're filling a niche, this is one of our unique selling points,
you want to throw out the baby with the bathwater!
I'm tired of waiting for many many hours while we try to compose
out the
3444 individual updates in F11 stable.
The fact that it takes hours is really a failure of our mash process. Extras
managed to deal with this in a much more efficient way: they pushed only the
new stuff and then had scripts to clean out the old stuff (and a process to
request manual deletion if old stuff was not being cleaned out for some
reason). How much old stuff was in the repo was mostly irrelevant for the
time a push took.
