I have to agree with Johannes here, the testing should happen on the dev side and there should be some type of "QOS" control for a port that we produce.
this implies that $ARCH developers should test every known port of core/opt (and contrib?) collections... and it is not acceptable for me, specially for little communities You've stated this a couple of times now so I assume you're convinced

I'm willing to believe that too, but since I'm currently confident that it is possible even for a small crowd to maintain a properly tested system using the right tools, I convinced Daniel to do a test run with a x86_64 port which syncs from (and hopefully also to) x86. We plan to start in january, and we'll certainly post our results here to let you know how it goes. I'm sure that the outcome of this test will give us a good idea about what's possible and what's not, and will hopefully allow to use more facts and less emotional arguments in this discussion.
