    An argument that OSS projects should operate like Wikipedia pages: http://hintjens.com/blog:106  (Not sure I buy it, but it's interesting).

        @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 yes, we've been doing that since 2012 in most ZeroMQ projects, with significantly improved results

        @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

        @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 Run quickly into the issue of "this makes my life better" vs massive pain for existing users (interface/serialization changes)

        @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.

        @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.
