I suspect it works well in a day job environment, when you are working 
for the same 8 hours a day as the other developers on the project.  I 
suspect it works less well for Free Software where volunteers might have 
a haf hour to spare so they fix a bug, don't have time to do a full 
bootstrap before checking in, then might not see any mail generated 
because they are offline for the weekend.
