What do you mean by "install"? In our CVS? Or does each committer
who wants to help, need to have it installed locally?

As we discussed in the other "Whitepace" thread [1] there are
many issues with this, so we need to tread carefully. Imagine
that someone was doing major work on a certain component. When
they do a 'cvs update' then they would get massive cvs conflicts.

Perhaps we should practise with the cocoon-2.2 repository.

I am not sure what POLL means, but yes i am interested.
Thanks for exploring this.
