I'd disagree. built errors are usually only typos somewhere and usually 
don't require more than a few minutes of looking into the makefiles. and if 
there is no obvious fix visible, you revert the last commit locally and tell 
the one to blame to fix his commits. those who "spent hours for such 
breakages" should spent their time on reading the CVS documentation instead.

I agree. a bit of communication would have been better. Lets agree on this 
and move on and stop this nonsense discussion!

/me wonders though why the kivio developers are not subscribed to the 
koffice-devel mailinglist though.

And all what the others say is that when you can't stand the Bazaar, you 
should go back hiding in the cathedral. 

By the inclusion of kivio in koffice not only the koffice team has to accept 
the kivio team's rules, but also vice versa.
