The /roster/committer/* pages now support dry runs of changes. Double click on on a light green area to show a form; make the updates you wish, and then option-click on Macs (control-click everwhere else) on the relevant button. The results will come back in JSON form. For LDAP changes, they will show you the previous value, for SVN changes you will see a transcript of commands issued and their responses. You will also see other information, including a JSON representation of the committer page. - - - This tool can be run locally assuming you have your .whimsy file set up and LDAP configured. See https://github.com/apache/whimsy/blob/master/DEVELOPMENT.md#setup The commands you need to run a local server can be found in https://github.com/apache/whimsy/blob/master/www/roster/README The server will automatically restart whenever it detects a code change. You mentioned adding an action to move a member to deceased... that sounds like a relatively straightforward change that can be developed and tested locally. To make it even easier, I've split up the file that shows the page, which means that only two files would need to be updated for this change. For the client side: https://github.com/apache/whimsy/blob/master/www/roster/views/person/memstat.js.rb and for the server side: https://github.com/apache/whimsy/blob/master/www/roster/views/actions/memstat.json.rb - Sam Ruby
