I agree it's definitely gone up recently, and agree that it causes a lot of wasted time. I'm not convinced about closing the tree, though; keeping the tree closed for extended periods just leads to big backups. How about everybody reading this message takes a look at the list on http://brasstacks.mozilla.com/orangefactor/ and takes one of them to fix?
