Hi Petter,I think it is not necessary because for most of the sourcecode there
is one
person who is developing it.
I am programming the umax-backend and it would be a lot of work for me
to keep the code clean if other people change the code. It is much better for me

if someone who likes to have changed something in the umax-code, sends me a
mail with a diff-file or describers what should be changed, so I am always
informed about every change in the code.

There are only litte parts that may be changed by every sane-programmer.

So I must say I prefer it the way it is now!

Bye
Oliver
