Looking at at the rate of svn commits your definition of 'very rapidly' differs
wildy from mine, moko has ~90 commits per week (including changes to trunk/oe,
not the source code!), 'very rapidly' would be 90 commits per  *day*. The only
thing that changes (not even rapidly) is uboot. And uboot is not something 90%
of the developers want to build. And a large part of the remaining commits seem
to get reverted when someone tries to build it.
