comps hosed?

[Christoph Wickert]

For two days I'm getting a pup error now:

The typo "genre: optinoal" seems to be where the error comes from.
Thanks to Peter Gordon this is already fixed in CVS. How and how often 
is comps being pushed?

Also I see that Micheal Schwendt fixed some errors in comps yesterday. 
Maybe we should think about a way avoid situations like these in the 
future? We should at least take care that _if_ something is wrong with 
comps, it shouldn't get pushed.
