@avibryant some of the issues with the pessimistic are tooling / project infrastructure ones. stuff like homu (as used by rust) can help »

@avibryant « homu: http://homu.io/ there's also info here: http://huonw.github.io/blog/2015/03/rust-infrastructure-can-be-your-infrastructure/#homu-not-rocket-science …. the downside is infrastructure takes time... -
@kamalmarhubi took me a while to understand this: the key thing is that homu tests the result of merging to master, not the branch itself? -
@kamalmarhubi if so, I think they should make that clearer in the docs.

@avibryant *might* be acceptable for internal projects but for F/OSS that means you'd have no idea what the latest version of a package did -
@flipzagging
@avibryant we've been using this for years on ZeroMQ projects, and it delivers stability and overall happiness -
@hintjens @flipzagging@avibryant quite interesting. I can attest to ZeroMQ being one of the most stable and reliable tools in our stack.

@avibryant@b0rk I essentially started doing this a short bit ago. It won't work for all projects. But, it's not as radical as one may think - 1 more reply

@avibryant this does get a lot more contributors, but code coherency has to be maintained by constantly fixing incoming patches. -
@avibryant so it's a little brutal on the core team and they need a lot of unscheduled reactive time -
@avibryant they also need that time to be responsive in a review-before-merge setup though.

@avibryant It has also been my experience that most PRs fit: this solves my problem, but will need work to solve the problems of all.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@avibryant I wouldn't want to be maintainer in that model. I do, tho, wish I could avoid blocking PRs until I prove them safe for users.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
