I've decided to use the male pronoun for Patchy, since Vivi is a girl and I don't want people to think I have a fixation on virtual little girls. (as an anime and vocaloid geek, of couse I actually _do_, but I try not to make it terribly obvious) Anyway, Patchy doesn't do a doc build for patches because of a combation of 1) patch handling is not in a cronjob yet (he needs more testing) 2) I don't have a fast enough computer to want to sit through a doc rebuild for every patch As a result, right now Patchy only does a full doc build for the dev/staging merge. > Do you have any intuition as to > how Patchy may be fine tuned to catch problems in the > reg-tests/docs?

Code review would help; it's the best single method of catching bugs: http://kev.inburke.com/kevin/the-best-ways-to-find-bugs-in-your-code/ look at Patchy source, assume that everything I wrote is flawed, and send patches (or just push fixes) for those flaws. once Patchy is tested a bit more, I'll put him in a cronjob (so my computer can be busy with that when I'm not there), and once he's tested even more, I'll offload him to James. - Graham _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
