Well you haven't been looking closely then. (not that I want to join the argument but it's MUCH more than one hand). And I'm talking about core stuff and not experimental extensions where it is less important. Ok, please go find me a cvs commit made by a new cvs user to the core of PHP that ended up breaking things. If there are so many of them this shouldn't take you long.
