No, I am not suggesting that. It seemed like ACL's were being presented
as the solution to every
known problem with CVS. This is incorrect. You can still commit 'wrong'
changes, although you
can commit to fewer modules (only the ones you have access too). So the
ACL's don't remove the 
need for some education/guidelines/rules.

I do find it weird though that we can't even trust the people who we
give CVS access anymore to
play by the rules. Doesn't this indicate a bigger/other problem?

Yours sincerely,

Almer S. Tigelaar
