It’s both a strength and a weakness I guess. The good thing is that we
can make changes that affect everything at once. The bad thing is what
you mention.
We could use feature branches more, with the downside that they would
probably get little additional testing, precisely because one would have
to choose between features and packages.
Thoughts?
