They have a front-spear of integrators that work on one source tree, and they only apply patches to their own parts of it. It's like we only had 1/2 of the core-team with commit-access. There are good sides of their model, too - you have a centralized place to throw changes at, and the person taking care of that area have to either reject or accept - ignoring is not really an option. And way too many patches end up just rotting in FreeBSD :-( Eivind.
