When developer communication gets difficult

If you’ve ever worked on a project with several people, you’ve probably run into 
 the problem of communication among developers. Someone changes the core of the system, 
 someone makes fixes, someone changes or extends the API, and so on.

If the changes aren’t big and only a few developers are working on the project, it’s possible 
 to keep track of everything by email. Developers tell one another about important changes, and 
 you can get more detail by reading the CVS notifications that come by email. That depends, of course, 
 on developers taking some care with their log messages.

Improving communication around shared source code is the subject 
 of Vincent Massol’s article Source Code Communication.
 What particularly caught my attention was the ability to export an RSS feed using FishEye with CVS.
