Let's not call the sky falling just yet. We are doing what we can. There
are several sub projects afoot trying to eliminate some of this pain. If

keep people in communication.
Secondly and although you aren't 100% on board, there is also the

Lastly, more people are starting to review code. Even people that can't
code are starting to at least participate in testing features.
