No. I think it's an essential tool for the release manager, to know 
what has finally gone into the release. This was part of the motive 
for taking 2.0 out of CVS to stabilise it.

You can have logs emailed to a list and you can have an archive that 
automatically merges selected developer's work. I think this is an 
automatic approximation to the "Linus and lieutenants" way of working 
that used to be used for the kernel. Good for development, but maybe 
not so good for stabilisation.
