Hi!

For me, it does not look like a process-change only.

I haven't thought through all the details, I'm going with my
intuition here (because thinking it through takes a long time).

One number: I made approx. 40 commits to quarterly trees in 2 years,
and broke it one least once, probably more often. Go to

https://secure.freshbsd.org/search?committer=pi

and then limit the view to the 8 quarterlies and check those commits.
It might as well be my sloppiness, but...

My gut feeling says it's more than a little change and a bit
of configuration.
