I don't think developers should be committing patches immediately before leaving for the weekend if there's a reasonable chance of it affecting an untested target. It's discourteous to other developers to potentially break the tree for an entire weekend. Check patches in during the morning. Then if there's a problem arises you've got a chance to make a reasonable decision about what to do about it. R.
