Then again, how would you propose to deal with regressions that will for sure slip in at periods of time, when trunk is not buildable or doesnt boot?

For example, inbetween ac97 driver install breakage range - rev: 46977-47057 i counted at least 4 regressions that were introduced in revisions inbetween.

If we had one hundred or more full time developers, this might work.
We don't so it's not working and it is creating a mess and losing the
little time we have in branches. The argument that was pushed and
posted by the developers that left the project recently objected to
dividing resources in regards of the other project branch (which
should have remained as a research project and not the official
replacement of a ReactOS subsystem) thus proving them correct.

Look at this as a signal warning before the shit hits the reef.......
The ship has turn into the reef!
