I'm sorry I got angry a bit fast. Actually dealing with such simple 
conflicts is not such a big thing...

Yep. In fact it is kind a coordination problem. Coordination is needed 
as mentionnend in "what is not CVS" in Molli's CVS manual.

I thought you would warn the mailing list before doing such an 
update. I think freezing CVS or something like that is required 
before updates that deal with such an amount of lines or else 
every body who has made changes in the meanwhile can't commit 
them because they conflict.

An entry in ChangeLog is not sufficient because developers can't 
see it early enough. When they try to commit and have conficts, 
it's too late.
