What a great site... esp. if you start at ~esr/writings/ This concept of
Bazaar developing have a very beautiful approach and is a MUST read for everyone
on the list. (so is the hacker FAQ) Seems almost like the development of circle
has been using this method, albeit with a slower release cycle, but george's
patch page seems to making up for it... Now just to wait with baited breath for
the next circle release.

For those unfamiliar with the bazaar development style, it is fairly
open development. A few developers accepting changes from a the
community of users, with frequent snapshots of the code (or direct
read-only access) between the stable releases. See
http://sagan.earthspace.net/~esr/writings/cathedral-bazaar/ for details.
