	Quite; easy, and friendly too :-)

	Sure sure, so - I think Stephan has a point - that we ought to find
some way of enabling this for some set of people that can cope with it.
I suspect a good heuristic would be to have an 'auto' mode for the flag
that checks if you have git push access and if so enables -Werror, so
that old-hands get it automatically, and newbies don't suffer.

	Quite - it is difficult enough as it is; fret not - personally I'm not
in favour of -Werror for all - only of the TSC deciding what to do
here :-) We'll discuss it at our next meeting.

	ATB,

		Michael.
