Me, too, as I already wrote in a reply to the dot story that was a preview for this 
discussion. I think that not only a lot of cohesion will be lost and that people will
be spending a lot of time merging instead of coding, but also that in practice, we'll
see a return to the merge-at-the-last moment, where integration of all new code is 
postponed to when the release is supposed to be made.
