The 1.5 development process was an order of magnitude faster and the

I think you should be able to make a difference between a patch that
change LyX workflow from a patch that is just cleanup.

I meant cleanup as "redesign". There is a look of things that are simply not designed design in LyX.

Why is that so
difficult?

Because it slows me down a lot and is thus no fun at all.


We need to draw a line between patches that change conceptual things
and patch that just continue n a well understoof direction.

If for every conceptual change we need everyone to understand the direction, I wish you good luck.


The svn log and trac diff are there to review for all. One commit
can be reverted if it is found bad.

This is true for a small commits. But making architectural changes and
then reverting them is the sign that something is quite wrong.

I don't think we ever reverted an architectural change of mine. And I've done a lot of architectural changes in 1.5.
